Local businessman honoured with OAM

John Jackson, who ran an optometrist business in the Parramatta CBD from 1958, was recognised with a medal of the Order of Australia (OAM), in the Queen’s Birthday honours, for his service to the optical dispensing industry and his leadership roles in professional organisations. Mr Jackson has retired from the family business but still attends to customers in the shop in Macquarie Street. He said he has a “difficulty staying away”.
