Edel Duffy PhD
Head of Medical
As the Head of Medical at Scope, I bring over 15 years of experience in Global Medical Affairs within the healthcare industry. My career began as a clinical nutritionist in a large teaching hospital, where I cared for and supported patients post-surgery. This foundational experience has fuelled my passion for championing the needs of both patients and healthcare professionals.

At Scope, I strive to integrate these needs into product development, create valuable patient resources, and provide essential education and support for clinicians. My goal is to ensure that every aspect of our work reflects our commitment to excellence in patient care and clinical practice.
Mandy Davidson, BSc (Hons) MCOptom
Medical & Professional Affairs Manager
I am a UK-based Optometrist and have been a proud member of the College of Optometrists since graduating. My career began at Bristol Eye Hospital, and I have since gained extensive experience in hospital, multiple, and independent settings.

My interest in dry eye was sparked by the challenges faced by dissatisfied contact lens wearers in my clinics. In 2010, I established my first dedicated dry eye clinic, which has grown into a highly successful service. Today, I continue to run my dry eye clinic part-time while also working as a member of the SCOPE Medical and Professional Affairs Department.
