Colour blindness is almost always inherited, although it can be acquired condition as a result of some diseases or injuries. Colour vision testing is a routine part of the eye examinations of every new patient and child.

Macular 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.

The 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.

1 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.

Glaucoma 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.

Keratoconus 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.

We offer a wide range range of contact lenses. Our optometrists will fit you with the best contact lens for your prescription and individual needs.
