Due to the current stay-at-home orders in force over Greater Sydney at the moment, You & Eye Optical is still only providing urgent, time-critical care. However, if you do have an issue that can't wait, we can help you. Optometrists and any support staff are classed as essential, and both of us live in areas of Sydney where we are allowed to travel to the city.
Over the time of this lockdown I've been in the practice about once per week, for urgent eye care, repairs, even postage. If you're having vision issues that need attention before the end of August, please call or email and I'll try to organise a time to help. If you live in the eight local government areas under stricter lockdown, I'll find you an option close to your home.
Seeking and receiving medical care is absolutely allowed under the current health orders, and if you do need urgent eye care we can provide that. Anything routine should be delayed until the lockdown is over, but if you have sudden onset of symptoms such as unusual vision loss, double vision, unexplained pain, please call me on 0402830563. I can give advice and/or arrange to come in and see you in the practice. This applies to broken glasses as well, not being able to see is an emergency!
If you need contact lenses re-ordered, we can probably do that remotely and have them posted straight to you, please either phone me or e-mail cathy@youandeye.com.au
We hope everyone is staying healthy, and we can see you soon!
Cathy and Vanessa
