DO I NEED A REFERRAL FOR AN EYE TEST?
No referral is needed. You can book directly with us anytime.
Are eye tests covered by Medicare?
Yes. Most standard eye tests are bulk billed to Medicare if you have a valid Medicare card.
How often should I have an eye test?
Adults: every 2 years
Children: every year during school age
Over 65 or with eye health risks: every year, or as advised by your optometrist
Do you accept all health funds?
Yes — we accept all Australian health funds and can claim instantly on the spot through HICAPS.
What if I don’t have a health fund?
That’s fine. We’ll still provide a full eye exam and can help you choose eyewear that fits your budget.
Do you test children’s eyes?
Yes, we provide gentle and accurate eye tests for children of all ages.
Can I get prescription sunglasses?
Absolutely. Most of our sunglass frames can be fitted with prescription lenses.
Do you fit contact lenses?
Yes. We offer fittings, trial lenses, and training on safe contact lens use, plus ongoing aftercare.
How long does an eye test take?
Most appointments take about 20–30 minutes. If extra tests are needed, it may take a little longer.
Do you repair or adjust glasses?
Yes, we can tighten, adjust, and replace parts for most frames.
When should I bring my child in for their first eye test?
We recommend a first check before starting school, or sooner if you notice any signs of vision problems.
How quickly can I get my glasses?
Standard lenses can often be ready within a week. Some specialised lenses may take longer — we’ll let you know at the time of ordering.
