Ross

Ross joined the Eyetech team in February 2020, and brings with him over 18 years of experience in the Optical Industry, as well as a whole lot of pizzazz! He is passionate about fashion, high quality eyewear and helping you find the new and improved you. He has a collection of over 50 optical frames and sunglasses, because one pair simply does not suit all outfits. He is committed to giving you the best customer service excellence and ensuring that you receive all the assistance needed to help you choose your perfect pair of glasses with the best lenses for your needs. Ross believes choosing a new pair of glasses should be fun, not a chore. When he’s not looking for the next wonderful pair for you (and himself), he loves reading, cooking delicious creations, all dogs but especially his gorgeous dog Jeffery and the odd glass of Pinot Noir.

Shinna

Shinna was welcomed into the Eyetech family in May 2021. As a child, she was always interested in the amazing abilities of the eye. Driven to serve the public and  inspired by her aunt who was an Optometrist, she pursued Optometry in her home country, Malaysia where she practiced for 8 years. After migrating to Australia, she wanted to continue to be in touch with what she knows and loves best - eye care.

Eyetech enables her to continue her calling, and its wonderful patients continue to drive her passion towards the field. She believes that every patient should be cared for, from the moment they step into the practice and well after they step out, and thus she strives to provide a comfortable and well informed environment for all, starting with a genuine heartfelt smile (even behind a mask or over the phone). Shinna will be looking forward to meeting and guiding you through your journey in the practice as she takes you through your tests, tuitions, frame selection and anything you may require.

While away from the work scene, Shinna enjoys exploring the various variety of food and vast scenes that Victoria has to offer with her husband and son.
