Meet the front-of-house team: Beth Merry

Meet the team: Beth Merry

We welcomed Beth Merry to Cameron Optometry in 2024, and she has been a wonderful addition to the team. With a background in customer service across retail and events, Beth brings warmth and a genuine love of people to her role.

Beth holds a bachelor’s degree in communication and a master’s in creative writing. She has loved volunteering at book festivals, where helping people and having a good chat were all part of the job. She has really enjoyed returning to a face-to-face role and being the first point of contact for patients coming into the practice.

When it comes to eyewear, Beth loves a bold, round frame in a fun colour, with Gigi frames having particularly caught her eye.

Her top tip for patients is a practical one: don’t forget to bring in your empty lens spray bottle for a refill.

What Beth loves most about her role is the people. She describes the Cameron Optometry team as kind, supportive, and always willing to help, and she enjoys making patients feel welcome from the moment they walk through the door.

Born in the UK, Beth emigrated to Australia at the age of 10 and returned to the UK in 2017. Having recently completed her master’s, she is currently working on her first book, so you may well spot her name on the shelves of local bookshops in the future. With creativity firmly in her blood, she also enjoys crafting and baking when she’s not at work.
