Visionary Eye Specialists

Visionary Eye Specialists is a general ophthalmic practice offering comprehensive eye care for Southern Sydney and beyond since 1998. We see patients of all ages including infants and children.


Here at Visionary, we are more than happy to see anyone who has an acute eye problem and is in urgent need of assessment and treatment. A referral from your GP or optometrist is preferred but not essential. The referral is required for you to receive the Medicare rebate that covers part of the cost of your visit.


Our practice locations are in Hurstville and Miranda (see Locations).


Our staff includes a team of university-trained orthoptists who will take a thorough history from you and perform any required testing prior to you seeing your doctor. Both our practice locations are well-equipped with the latest diagnostic equipment.

 

All of the doctors at Visionary Eye Specialists are first and foremost general ophthalmologists and are therefore fully trained to diagnose and treat most eye conditions. In addition, each of our doctors also have their own individual areas of sub-specialty expertise (see Our Doctors).


Cataract surgery is our major area of expertise and is the most frequently performed operation. Our surgeons have received sub-specialty training in cataract surgery, so we can offer you the latest technology and best techniques in this evolving and rewarding field of medicine. Refractive lens exchange, a procedure that is very similar to cataract surgery, is also performed by our surgeons; it is available for people who do not yet have cataracts but who would like to be spectacle-free (see Eye Conditions: Cataract).

 

Glaucoma diagnosis and management is also an important part of our work at Visionary. We have the most advanced equipment required for glaucoma diagnosis and management. Our surgeons are trained in both laser and surgical treatment of glaucoma (see Eye Conditions: Glaucoma).

 

Macular degeneration: Our doctors at Visionary are trained in the diagnosis and management of retinal and macula diseases, using the latest OCT technology. We are also able to offer treatment with intravitreal medication for “wet” macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and other suitable retinal conditions. (See Eye Conditions: Macular Degeneration)

Other services offered at Visionary Eye Specialists include the following:

  • General eye examinations for all age groups
  • Screening eye tests for diabetics
  • Pterygium surgery
  • Surgical treatment of eyelid cancers (including eyelid reconstruction), and other eyelid problems (e.g. ptosis, ectropion)
  • Assessment and treatment of children with reduced vision or squint (turned eye)
  • Treatment of eye infections and eyelid cysts
  • Assessment and treatment of dry eyes and ocular allergies
  • Treatment of eyelid diseases, watery eyes and lacrimal (tear) problems
  • Diagnosis and treatment of uveitis
  • Diagnosis and treatment of many neuro-ophthalmic conditions
  • Assessment and treatment of double vision

 

If you are unsure whether the doctors at Visionary Eye Specialists are right for you then a telephone conversation with one of our helpful reception staff may make this clearer.

 

Making an appointment with one of our doctors is the next step if you’d like us to look at your eyes. There is some flexibility with respect to the fees charged at Visionary as we know that everyone does not have the financial means to access certain medical services, but we strongly believe that everyone should have equal access to quality medical care.
