Services
Eye examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations utilise advanced diagnostic technology to assess vision clarity, ocular health, and detect early signs of eye diseases. The exams include retinal imaging, intraocular pressure testing, and visual field analysis. With over 80 years of combined experience, our optometrists provide thorough assessments suitable for all ages, from children to seniors.
Contact lenses
We offer custom contact lens fittings for various needs including daily disposables, bifocals, and specialty lenses for dry eyes or keratoconus. Our optometrists provide ongoing support for contact wearers, including troubleshooting comfort issues and recommending the most suitable lens materials for individual lifestyles and ocular requirements.
Dry eye treatment
Our dry eye management combines advanced diagnostics with targeted treatments like M22 Optima IPL therapy for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. We develop personalised treatment plans addressing environmental factors, lifestyle modifications, and medical interventions to improve tear quality and ocular surface health for lasting relief.
Ortho-K
Orthokeratology involves wearing custom-designed lenses overnight to gently reshape the cornea, providing clear vision during waking hours without glasses or contacts. This non-surgical solution is ideal for active individuals and has been proven to slow myopia progression in children while offering freedom from daytime vision correction.
Children's vision assessment
Our behavioural optometry approach for children evaluates visual efficiency, eye coordination, and developmental aspects beyond basic sight testing. We address learning-related vision problems, provide tinted lenses for reading difficulties, and monitor visual development to ensure optimal visual skills for academic and athletic performance.
