Before we delve into our next case I should make it known that shortly after my last column was published in May I was summoned to an urgent meeting with the NZ Optics editorial team. Disturbing reports had emerged of the readership falling asleep when perusing the contents of Speciality Contact Lens Forum. Admittedly, I was shocked that there were optometrists out there not captivated by weird rigid lenses like me. I was issued an ultimatum: Inject some personality into my case reports, or be shipped back to the penal colony across the Tasman as penance for the crime of dull writing. Jokes aside it is great to see the energy Lesley and Jai are putting into the magazine and I’m excited and grateful to help out in a small way as NZ Optics evolves. Naturally I apologise in advance for the glut of ‘dad’ jokes and inappropriate puns that I now have free-reign to include in future missives. On to the optometry.
