Everyone should have their eyes examined.
Effective vision is essential to a rewarding, fulfilling, happy and healthy life for most people.
A visit to the Optometrist at either of our practices is the first step towards maintaining or improving your vision. An eye examination is a comfortable and easy process. An initial consultation normally takes about thirty minutes.
Bulk billed on Medicare.
You don’t need a referral to see us. At Anthony Smith Optometrists we bulk bill all consultations, with the exception of contact lens examinations. People have asked if there is an additional fee if a recent visit was performed at another optometrist. We don’t charge any extra, it’s all covered by your medicare card.
The Optometrists will use special instruments to examine the inside and outside of your eyes. We will take a comprehensive history of you and your family, detailing your eye and general health. This is to help identify any ocular disease or optical error. Many of these conditions are more readily controlled if detected early. Additional tests can be done at this time, or at a subsequent appointment.
Should a referral to an ophthalmologist be required, we will discuss all your options including the public/private alternatives. We keep your GP informed of our findings and advice and liaise with your GP for any further tests which may need to be performed.
Should you need to choose spectacles we have a wide range of fashion and high quality frames, with the latest technology lenses. We take pride in taking the time to fully inform you of all your frame and lens options. Why some frames are more appropriate for your lens requirements and which lens design and manufacturer will best suit you. You will not be rushed in to making a decision.
We like to make an appointment to see you about three weeks after collecting your new glasses. Often there is an adjustment period. It’s a good opportunity to check everything is going well and we like to make sure you’re happy. If there is an issue we address it promptly.
