Doncaster Eye Centre

Doncaster Eye Centre is an ophthalmology clinic established in 1999, located in a purpose-built facility. The centre has grown since its inception and now includes a team of ophthalmologists, each with their own area of expertise, to provide comprehensive eye care. The clinical staff are committed to excellence and endeavour to provide patients with a high standard of ophthalmic care. They regularly attend clinical meetings and conferences to ensure the most current and effective investigations and treatments are available to patients.

The patient's journey at the centre often begins with an examination by an orthoptist. This initial assessment includes taking a medical and ophthalmic history, measuring vision, and performing preliminary tests such as measuring intraocular pressure. This collaborative approach ensures that the ophthalmologist has all the necessary information to conduct a thorough examination of the eye. The orthoptists also perform a range of other diagnostic tests as required by the treating ophthalmologist, utilising the centre's clinical equipment.

The centre offers a wide range of services and treatments for various eye conditions. These include the management of cataracts, glaucoma, corneal conditions, and retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. The clinic is equipped to perform minor surgical procedures in its on-site treatment room, while major surgeries are conducted at various prominent hospitals around Melbourne. The team also manages conditions related to oculoplastics, strabismus, and provides prescriptions for glasses for both adults and children.
