David Barras Email & Phone Number | Having qualified as an optometrist in 2009, my initial work was through a large chain of optical practices. Here I enjoyed the process of being able to build a rapport and relationship with local patients spanning many years. I passionate about the continuity of care of patients and that the best treatment and solutions can be provided when excellent communication exists. I am also enthusiastic about continuing education and, given the time, am always keen to learn new techniques and better develop practices and processes. I am always keen to discuss and share ideas with colleagues and other professionals. I am also a big advocate and early-adopter of digital technologies and look to these to enhance the care I'm able to give and the connections between services. My eagerness to continue my development has led me to work alongside the fantastic orthoptic team in providing assessment of paediatric patients at Blackpool Victoria Hospital since 2015, both as a solo practitioner as well as within joint clinics with the orthoptists. Whilst in this role, I have also studied for and completed two professional certificates in the field of paediatric eye care at Cardiff University to further enhance my knowledge and skills in this area. Following this, my dream is to assist in advancing the provision and effectiveness of children's eyecare and those with additional needs within the local area. Within my role at Blackpool Victoria Hospital, I also perform biometric analysis and interpretation for the Ophthalmic Surgical Unit utilising a variety of devices and methods. When not at work, I am a keen runner having completed several marathons as well as a middle-distance triathlon. I have previously qualified as Run Leader with UK Athletics. I also regularly enjoy volunteering at my local Parkrun event.
