“The service provided by all staff from admin support to surgical was second to none. It made the somewhat daunting prospect of an eye procedure a lot more relaxing and simplified. The post procedure patient care was as equally satisfying. I found the staff are very friendly and patient as well as very informative . I highly recommend the team to anyone experiencing eye/sight related issues.”

SMILE ®

We are proud to be the first clinic to offer the very latest treatment in laser eye surgery in Melbourne: SMILE. This revolutionary vision correction treatment aims to provide excellent visual outcomes while minimising recovery time and post-operative complications.

LASIK

LASIK is the most well-known vision correction procedure performed in Melbourne. It is an excellent option for many patients, correcting a wide range of prescriptions from long to short-sightedness, astigmatism.

PRK

PRK is one of the earliest surgical vision correction techniques developed. This treatment remains a useful option for many patients, particularly those with thinner corneas or who engage in certain vocations and activities that involve physical contact.

ICL

Intraocular contact lenses (ICLs) are an excellent vision correction solution for patients who are not suitable for laser-based procedures such as LASIK, PRK, or SMILE. This treatment can provide outstanding results, even if you have a very high prescription.

PRESBYOND

PRESBYOND, also known as laser blended vision, is an effective laser eye surgery procedure for treating patients with presbyopia and other refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia or/and astigmatism, so they can see a range of distances without glasses or contact lenses.

Lens replacement

Lens replacement has the benefit of being able to correct significant levels of short and long-sightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. It is typically best suited for patients over the age of 50 whose prescriptions exceed the treatable range of other laser surgery treatments.

Cataract surgery

Lifestyle cataract surgery is an excellent solution if you want a safe and effective treatment for your cataract, and correct your short-sightedness, long-sightedness, astigmatism and presbyopia.

The dry eye spa

The dry eye spa is a specialised centre for the treatment of dry eye. After an in-depth discussion and assessment with our experienced clinicians to evaluate the cause, you will undergo treatment tailored to your unique circumstances to restore the health and comfort of your eyes.
