Rebecca Daly
Rebecca joined the practice in May 2019 with an impressive background in eye care. Originally from Mullingar in Ireland, Rebecca gained her BSc (hons) optometry degree from the Technological University of Dublin before moving to Scotland to begin her career in optometry.
Her career has seen her work mainly with an independent optometrist group where she gained valuable experience. In addition to over 20 years experience, she has several further qualifications to her name. Like our other optometrists, she holds her independent prescribing qualification, which means she can prescribe medication as required, as well as having a better understanding of how existing medication patients are taking may impact on their vision. She also completed the MSc in Primary Care Ophthalmology in 2017 which Gillian Bruce also completed.
In 2021 Rebecca gained the NESGAT qualification allowing her to care for patients with treated ocular hypertension and glaucoma who have been discharged from the hospital as part of a new NHS scheme. In addition to these optical qualifications, she also holds a Certificate in Medical Education.
As well as working with Cameron Optometry three days a week, Rebecca works with NHS Education for Scotland. In this role she works as one of the postgraduate optometry tutors with a focus on supporting the new community glaucoma service.
Rebecca now calls East Lothian home, where she embraces beach life. A passionate walker, she enjoys exploring long-distance trails such as the Camino de Santiago de Compostela. She's also an enthusiastic runner and cyclist, always keen to discover the scenic beauty tucked away in every corner of Scotland.
