Optometrist for Seniors

Eyesight and independence

Seniors and retirees depend on clear vision to embrace every moment of their daily adventures, from reading and cooking to travelling the world. Additionally, drivers over the age of 75 are required to undergo an annual eye test to maintain their license.

We understand the importance of finding the right optometrist to help maintain your independence for as long as possible. Don’t let your eyesight hold you back from enjoying the things you love during this phase of life. We provide life-changing eye care to ensure your vision remains reliable during your golden years.

Age-related eye conditions

As you age, changes in your vision become increasingly common. Even if you’ve never needed glasses before, there’s a good chance you’ll need assistance now. With decades of experience in promoting eye health, we specialise in diagnosing, treating, and, when necessary, referring age-related eye conditions to specialists.

Several issues may develop with age. These include presbyopia, age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, dry eye syndrome, glaucoma, retinal detachment and floaters. Glaucoma is of particular concern as it is a severe condition often presenting with no symptoms in the early stages.
