Macular DegenerationMacular Degeneration is a disease associated with aging that gradually destroys central vision. Using the latest technology including retinal scanning and OCT, we are able to take an in depth look into your eyes and assess your eye health.
Prescription SunglassesProtect your eyes from harmful UVA/UVB rays with our range of prescription polarised or tinted sunglasses.
Glaucoma ExamGlaucoma is a disease where the pressure within the eye is typically increased (although not always). This can damage parts of the eye, and if left untreated may result in blindness. Diagnosis consists of having regular eye tests, which includes a pressure measurement and visual field testing to enable early detection of possible problems.
Checkup Plus™Checkup Plus™ is more than just an eye test. Our optometrists take the time needed to give you a thorough eye examination. Following your Checkup Plus™ we will carefully explain the results and discuss our recommendations regarding any preventative or remedial care required.
Diabetic ExamThe health of the retina is very dependent on a good blood supply to the eye. Diabetes compromises blood circulation and can cause serious damage to the retina (diabetic retinopathy). Regular eye tests, when diagnosed with Diabetes, will reduce risk of vision loss and blindness.
Contact LensesWe offer a wide range range of contact lenses. Our optometrists will fit you with the best contact lens for your prescription and individual needs.
Children’s Vision1 in 5 Australian children have vision problems. We provide specialised eye tests to make sure that any vision problems are detected and any learning difficulties related to vision are corrected.
Dry Eye TreatmentDry eye disease or dry eye syndrome is caused by a chronic lack of sufficient lubrication and moisture on the surface of the eye. We offer a range of treatments to alleviate the symptoms of dry eye.
Corneal TopographyCorneal topography is a non invasive test that allows us to identify and monitor any changes to the cornea of your eye. It can help us identify problems with the eye’s surface, or eye conditions like astigmatism.
Digital Retinal ImagingDigital Retinal Imaging (DRI) is a scan that provides an image of the internal and anterior eye. DRI can assist the optometrist in managing and detecting changes in the eye associated with macular degeneration, glaucoma, hypertension, cholesterol, diabetes and cancers of the eye.
Sports VisionImprove your sporting performance with our sports vision assessments and range of prescription sports eyewear.
Keratoconus ExamKeratoconus is a progressive eye disease in which the normally round cornea thins and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape, causing distorted vision. If detected, our optometrists can explain treatments available.
