24.01.2022 I'm glad we are still open and here to help emergency eyecare cases. Saturday Anzac day - saw a very grateful man who needed a paint chip removed from his eye. And an eye emergency case of central retinal vein occlusion (nasty thing to have, which leads to reduced vision and possible complications if left untreated in the short term).. so an immediate call to the Sydney Eye Hospital to ensure the patient will get seen. We are here and ready to help. Since at the moment I... am consulting FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS ONLY, all emergencies or if you are concerned about your eye - please email [email protected]. I will reply usually within 1 hour max. We can schedule a teleconference first to determine severity of the problem. If needed, I will come to the practice to see you or recommend best course of action. Xxx Sophia

12.01.2022 It is with our deepest pain that we have lost our beloved Dr Olga. My partner and sister. Mum and wife. Sudden and unexpected. She leaves behind a legacy of passion for her work, ultimate patient care and dedication to everyone she touched. Genuine and compassionate. Rest in peace, my darling. Angels are now with you.

08.01.2022 A little message from us !!

08.01.2022 A scary close call for this trade. Remember to have appropriate certified safety eyewear... this could have ended badly if it wasnt for the safety specs. Disc grinder breaking into bits.

07.01.2022 Just a shout out to a fellow small business owner Sue, from @thehairchair across the road. You always do magic with my hair and Ive never been able to find a better hair dresser. A hair cut that had to wait 6 months... but finally done !

07.01.2022 We have been overwhelmed with your kindness and support these past 3 weeks. It has been a testing time, but we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to every single one of you, our beautiful community and patients. We apologise for the reduced trading hours and some last minute appointment rescheduling. However, as we learn to gain strength and with your ongoing support, we look forward to seeing more of you in this odd year of 2020.

02.01.2022 Have you been on digital devices/screens more in 2020 ? You may be suffering from digital eye-strain. Speak to us how we can help. Sore/tired eyes? Headaches Blurred vision Difficulty focusing / concentrating ... Neck pains Dedicated glasses, special coatings and adjustment of scripts to suit your changed needs are some of the ways we can help you feel more comfortable!

01.01.2022 One of the best lenses out there in a sunny. Hands down. #Mauijim #polarised #superiorUVprotection
