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.

Grandpa: “It’s just a quick job. Don’t need any gear.”

Also Grandpa: out in the backyard with a power drill, one sock on, no safety glasses, balancing on a garden chair like he’s auditioning for Australia’s Got Talent.

Legend. But also, a walking eye injury waiting to happen. That's why Home Eye Safety Month exists for a reason. DIY projects and “just a minute” jobs cause more eye injuries at home than you’d think — especially for older adults.

So this October, maybe gift Grandpa a nice pair of safety specs.

He’ll roll his eyes. But at least he’ll still have them. 🙄

Somewhere in Australia, someone is waiting to see their child’s face clearly again. While some others are hoping to read, drive, or go for a walk without fear.

Donating eye tissue can make that possible.

At Eyemedics, we want to raise awareness and encourage more Australians to register as donors. Because the gift of sight is something too many people are still waiting for.

It’s easy. It’s free. And it can change lives. ❤️

Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) is one of the leading causes of vision impairment in children. But here’s the tricky part: it doesn’t actually start with the eyes. CVI actually happens when the brain has trouble processing what the eyes see.

It can look like:
👀 Difficulty recognising faces
🌀 Trouble following moving objects
🚸 Struggling to navigate busy spaces

Because the signs aren’t always obvious, CVI is often missed or misunderstood, which is why Cortical Visual Impairment Awareness Month matters so much.

If your child is showing any of these signs, a visit to your local optometrist is a great place to start.

September is National Service Dog Month and we love talking about how amazing these animals are.

So, here are a few things you might not know about guide dogs in Australia…🐾

🦮 It costs over $50,000 to raise and train just one guide dog
📆 Training takes around 2 years before they’re ready to be matched with a person
🐶 Most guide dogs retire around age 10, and yes, they get to live the sweet life after
🇦🇺 Only 1 in 4 puppies make it through the full program (the others often become therapy or support dogs!)
🚌 Guide dogs are legally allowed everywhere their humans go, including on buses, planes, taxis and in cafés

That’s pretty pawsome, if you ask us.💛

Did you know dads have a special eyesight? That's right, they can spot you touching the thermostat from three rooms away. 🌡️👀 They’ve also got built-in radar for snack sneaking, suspicious silence, and mysteriously “fixed” things that were never broken.

This Father’s Day, we’re celebrating the legendary vision of dads everywhere, the kind that sees beyond the surface and always shows up with love, laughter and a well-stocked toolbox of life advice.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at Eyemedics! And yes, that’s Dr Tim Greenwell, one of our ophthalmologists and top-tier dads, pictured in full fatherly form. 👨‍⚕️🧡

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.
