HICKAM AIR FORCE BASE, Hawaii -- Maj. Tara Jayne, 15th Aeromedical-Dental Squadron optometrist, uses a split lamp to determine the overall health of Senior Airman Matthew Brown?s. She has spent more than eight years as an optometrist in the Air Force providing eye care and teaching people that wearing sunglasses can prevent cataracts later in life. Major Jayne, the only Air Force optometrist on Hickam, has been on five humanitarian trips to the Dominican Republic, Philippines and Thailand during her career. Her next assignment will take her to Europe and Ramstein Air Base, Germany. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Mike Meares)
