Consultations

Our comprehensive Eye Examination focuses on vision and general ocular health in relation to your visual history and performance. Early detection, regular monitoring and prevention of potential problems affecting ocular health and sight are crucial for preserving vision. Clinically it is recommended that our eyes are examined every two years or at least every year during our growing youth years. Our optometrist encompasses  both Traditional and Behavioural optometry to determine visual refraction. Children in particular are examined with a variety of additional visual skills tests to identify/confirm issues like colour deficiency, squints, focus imbalance, stereopsis or any other evidence that may be the root cause of the child’s visual  impediment to reaching his/her potential during educational development where vision plays a part. Through 43+ years experience in clinical practice, our optometrist has seen some complicated vision cases and the best reward of all is to see the developing child blossom into a happy functionally well-rounded adult. Cases range from very high astigmatism (9.00D cylinder), very high prescriptions (between +12.00D and -20.00D some with Astigmatism, successful contact lens fittings with both soft and rigid types achieving optimal vision; anisometropia occurs when a child’s two eyes are very different which usually concludes with either double vision or lazy eye/s,  unsuccessful outcomes from laser surgery, post cataract, corneal graft, keratoconus, macular degeneration. Our optometrist has worked in hospital supporting Ophthalmology specialising in Corneal issues. Currently we are working with ophthalmology to help with those retinal issues that were hopeless in the past but are now able to be treated and sometimes even for free on clinical trials.
