Howes and Brown Optometrists Meadowbank

Howes and Brown Optometrists Meadowbank We are an independent optometry practice with over 30 years of experience. We specialise in paediatric, behavioural, and neuro-optometry.

Your vision is our priority, and we are committed to helping you develop your visual potential. At Howes and Brown Optometrists Meadowbank we offer Behavioural Optometry Consultations. Behavioural Optometry is a specialist area within optometry requiring significant post-graduate study beyond the level of general practice. Behavioural optometrists are interested in the total visual process, such as how we integrate vision with other sensory and motor systems along with the processing of visual information. Our assessments include:
• Functional Vision Skills such as fixation, focus, eye teaming and eye movement control.
• Perceptual Visual Skills such as visual spatial abilities, visual analysis abilities, visuo-motor integration abilities, visual-auditory integration abilities and selective visual attention. Conditions involving difficulties in these skills may be developmental or acquired and can be improved with vision therapy. Vision therapy is an individualised program of planned sequential activities designed to enhance development of visual function and perceptual performance. Therapy is offered in home based or in-office programs. Success is linked to patient compliance. Call us now to book in for your initial visual functional and perceptual assessments.

This World Sight Day we are putting presbyopia in the spotlight👓

Arms too short to hold your phone? 🤳
Tiny print turning into a blur? 📄
Eyes aching after reading? 😫
That’s your eyes telling you they need a check-up.

Presbyopia is a natural change in your vision that happens as we reach our 40s. Zooming in, stretching your arms, and squinting harder is not a solution. Why settle when clear and comfortable vision is within reach? 💆‍♀️

Let’s celebrate World Sight Day by giving your eyes the love they deserve. ❤️👁

Book your check up today and see comfortably up close again.
