★★★★★
"I got my eyes tested by Mark and what he explained, no one else has explained to me this way — even though I've had eye tests in Australia for so many years. He genuinely cares about your eyes. I'm never going anywhere else."
★★★★★
"I take my two kids here. My experience is that they are always very professional, with a lot of care and patience. Especially for my son who has just been fitted with OrthoK lenses. The after care service has been exceptional."
★★★★★
"Mark treated my dry eyes with IPL and I can't thank him enough. After my 3rd session I noticed an improvement, and by the 4th the dryness was almost completely gone. Really happy with the results."
★★★★★
"Mark was patient, kind, and professional, making her feel comfortable throughout the visit. We truly appreciate the clear explanations and the time taken to ensure she received the best care."
★★★★★

Dry eye treatment & IPL therapy
Dry, gritty, burning eyes? There's more we can do than drops.
It's not something you just have to live with.
Drops give temporary relief. They don't fix the cause. If your eyes constantly feel dry or irritated, we find out what's causing it. For most people, it's a blocked oil gland problem that drops alone won't fix. Our IPL therapy treats the root cause in short sessions, and most people feel only a brief warmth with each flash.

Multifocal glasses fitting
Multifocals, fitted properly.
Most multifocal problems are fitting problems.
Our optometrists have extensive training in advanced multifocal design. Most multifocal failures come down to three things: wrong measurements, wrong lens design for your lifestyle, or wrong frame choice. We work with leading lens manufacturers Hoya and Carl Zeiss, using precise digital measurements matched to how you use your eyes.

Paediatric optometrist & children's eye care
A special interest in children's vision.
Children's eyes develop differently from adult eyes.
Children communicate problems differently, and they need someone who knows what to look for. All our optometrists have additional qualifications to deliver a high standard of care. We test children from age 4, and we pick up things that school screenings routinely miss.
Myopia control & special interest in ortho-K
The Myopia Clinic
Childhood myopia is rising in Australia; higher myopia raises the risk of some eye conditions later in life.
Ortho-K

MiyoSmart Glasses

Does Medicare cover children's eye tests?
Yes — Medicare covers eye tests for all Australians aged 4 and over. Kids can be tested regularly: Medicare covers a comprehensive eye exam every 3 years, and sooner when there is a clinical reason. We recommend starting before school, because many learning difficulties turn out to be undiagnosed vision problems. Learn about our comprehensive children's eye tests
Can an optometrist treat dry eyes?
Yes. Mark, Vivian and Nikki are all therapeutically endorsed, which means they can diagnose and treat dry eye, including IPL treatment. We look at the oil glands in your eyelids and how stable your tears are.
How much does an eye test cost?
A standard eye examination is currently bulk billed through Medicare for eligible Medicare card holders. Some additional tests like OCT scans may have a small fee, but we'll always let you know before we do anything.
My child's eyesight keeps getting worse. Can you help?
Yes. This is one of our areas of special interest. Worsening short-sightedness in children can often be slowed with glasses, contact lenses and other options we discuss at the assessment. We run The Myopia Clinic with published pricing. Visit The Myopia Clinic
What does a comprehensive eye test involve?
We check your vision, eye pressure, and the health of your retina and optic nerve using advanced imaging like OCT scans. Think of it as a full health check for your eyes.
Do you accept all health funds?
Yes — we accept all major health funds via HICAPS, so you can claim on the spot for frames, lenses, and contact lenses. No paperwork to take home.
