Your Optometrist is a valuable member of your healthcare team. They are experienced in providing optical correction of vision disorders and diagnosis and management of eye diseases (such as cataract, macular degeneration and glaucoma).
Optometry is important for all stages in life, whether that's checking growing eyes, easing the strain on visually demanding lifestyles or managing the changes that can occur in ageing eyes
At Fitzpatrick Optometrists we work closely with visiting Ophthalmologists (eye surgeons) and are aligned with the Queensland Children's Hospital under their Paediatric Optometry Program.
Technology
We invest in the latest technology, allowing early diagnosis of eye conditions and customised optical solutions for all members of your family.
Digital Retinal Photography (DRP) & Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT)
With access to the latest technology from ZEISS, your eye health has never been so clear. Digital retinal photography (DRP) and Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT) allow us to look closer then ever before at the delicate structures inside your eye - detecting signs of eye disease while still in early stages.
