Eyemedics

Eyemedics The Eyemedics team is totally focused on delivering a professional service, and ensuring that every patient receives the highest level of personal care.

Eyemedics is conveniently located within the same building as the state-of-the art Vista Day Surgery. Our Consultants are leaders in their fields, covering a wide range of diseases of the eye including Cataract, Glaucoma, Vitreo retinal, Macular Degeneration, Strabismus, External eye disease and Diabetic Eye disease just to name a few. A Testament to our unrivalled level of care and expertise, is that while many of Adelaide’s leading Optometrists and GPs refer their patients to Eyemedics, we also receive referrals for our sub-specialties from other Ophthalmologists.

Squash balls can travel up to 200km/h. That’s fast enough to cause serious eye damage. 😳 And it’s not just squash! Cricket balls, footy elbows, flying fingers in netball… eye injuries happen in a split second, and some can cause permanent vision loss.

September is Sports Eye Safety Month, and it’s the perfect time to check in on how you’re protecting your eyes (and your kids’ eyes) on the field or court, and that means getting yourself some proper protective eyewear. It might not be as flashy as your new boots, but it could save your sight.

Because honestly, what’s the point of scoring a goal if you can’t see it?

Noticing more eye strain lately? Struggling to read small text? Ignoring that blurry spot you keep wiping your glasses for?

We know that it’s easy to brush off small changes in your vision until they start getting in the way.

This National Eye Exam Month, we’re reminding you that you don’t need to wait until it’s “bad enough.” The best time to test your eyes is before something becomes a problem.

So go on and give your eyes the check-up and get that peace of mind. Book that appointment with your local optometrist and make sure your eyes are doing as well as you think they are. 👁️

We recently had the chance to trial the new Alcon Unity Phaco System at AUSCRS, and it did not disappoint. 🤩

With 4D phaco efficiency and surgeon-focused precision, this next-gen platform is looking amazing. At Eyemedics, it’s always exciting to stay on top of what’s new and next in ophthalmology, and this new tech genuinely looks like a big step forward in cataract and retinal surgery.

You’d be surprised how often we hear: “I thought it was just dry eyes…” or “I didn’t realise sleeping in my lenses could cause that.”

This Contact Lens Health Week, we want to gently remind you that those small mistakes can lead to big problems.

Contact lenses are a game-changer, but they only work safely when you follow the rules.

💡 Wash your hands before touching them
💡 Never reuse solution
💡 Don’t nap or sleep in them
💡 Replace your case regularly
💡 Check in with your optometrist at least once a year

This Contact Lens Health Week, take a moment to refresh those habits. Your vision is worth the extra care.

If you’ve had an appointment with one of our ophthalmologists, you’ve already seen how caring and thorough they are. But here’s a little fun fact…

Our ophthalmologists are also international speakers, researchers, and educators. This year, they’ve taken the stage at APSPOS and IOC, contributed to CPD events, and shared their knowledge with eye health professionals across Australia. More than that, they’re also incredibly kind, loving people who genuinely care about each patient who walks through our doors.

So today, for World Ophthalmologist Day, we’re lifting the Eyemedics curtain just a little and saying thank you to the brilliant minds and warm hearts who help shape the future of eye care in Australia.

💙 Happy World Ophthalmologist Day from all of us at Eyemedics.

We made pinch pots!
Some were bowls, some were…vibes.
But all were beautiful in their own unique, slightly wonky way.

Big shoutout to Urth Clay Studio for letting us live our best clay-handed lives this weekend. We had a lot of fun, and we definitely learned that clay doesn’t always do what you tell it to.

Would we do it again? Absolutely!
Would we open an Eyemedics Etsy store? Well, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. 😂

Parents notice everything. The way your child tilts their head when they’re thinking. How they dance when they’re excited.

But when it comes to eyesight, did you know that kids don’t always speak up, and they assume that everyone sees the world like they do?

This Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month, we’re reminding families that even subtle signs such as squinting, eye rubbing, or sitting too close to the screen could be worth checking out.

A simple eye test can make a big difference to how they learn, play, and grow.

Let’s make sure their world is as clear as it can be.

Have you ever met someone who got a second chance at life?

Organ and tissue donation makes that possible. And yet, while most Australians support donation, only 1 in 3 are registered.

During DonateLife Week (27 July – 3 August), we’re joining the call to raise awareness and encourage more South Australians to register.

One decision can change and save someone’s future.

If you haven’t registered yet, now’s the time. It only takes a minute, and it might mean a lifetime for someone else.

Let’s turn support into action: https://www.donatelife.gov.au/register

Why celebrate Christmas in December when you can have Christmas in July? 🎄

Today, the Eyemedics team got into the festive mood with reindeer pretzels, festive jumpers, and holiday hats that would make Santa jealous. There were enough laughs to warm up the chilly Adelaide winter day, and just enough holiday cheer to remind us that the best gift is having a fantastic team by your side.

Santa, take notes, cause this crew knows how to sleigh. Festive vibes: 20/20.

It starts with a weekend project.

A new shelf, a fresh coat of paint, a little sanding here and there. Before you know it, sawdust is flying, and your eyes are the ones paying the price.

Eye injuries during DIY projects are more common than you think, and many happen at home. The good news? They’re also easy to avoid.

Here are a few simple ways to keep your eyes safe while you work:

🥽 Shield your eyes from dust, splinters, and flying bits with proper safety glasses

🧼 Hands off your eyes! Paint, glue, and grit don’t belong there.

💡 Always remember, good lighting keeps accidents at bay.

🧯 Always keep your tools tidy. Sharp things and clutter don’t mix well.

🚿 Got something in your eye? Don't rub them! Rinse gently and get help if needed.

And if anything feels off, visit your local optometrist or GP. Your eyes are too important to ignore.

Are your eyes feeling a little itchy?

Maybe you thought it was just a long day or too much screen time. But then the redness came, and the watery eyes wouldn’t stop.

Sound familiar? You might be dealing with more than just tired eyes. Allergies are a common culprit, and your eyes are often the first to react. Pollen, dust, and pet dander can leave them feeling sore, itchy, and irritated.

A few simple steps can help. Try lubricating eye drops, keep windows closed on high pollen days, and wash your hands after spending time outdoors.

If your eyes are still feeling uncomfortable, don’t ignore it. Visit your local optometrist or GP to get it sorted.

Our team also recently attended the International Orthoptic Congress in Brisbane, where our very own Dr Susie Luu shared her insights on Biometry and Ultrasound in children, demonstrating how these tests aid in diagnosing and managing complex paediatric eye conditions.

Alongside her, our brilliant orthoptists Shandell Moore and Vanetta Polyak joined hundreds of orthoptists from around the world, soaking up new research and ideas in vision therapy and orthoptics.

We’re proud to bring this knowledge back to Eyemedics, so every patient we see receives care that’s informed by the latest expertise and delivered with genuine heart.
