Our Approach

Specialist dry eye assessment, informed by evidence.

Dry eye is frequently under-diagnosed and under-managed. Many patients have been using drops for months or years without understanding what is actually causing their symptoms. Our clinic uses clinical-grade diagnostic technology — the kind not available in a standard optometry appointment — to build a clear picture of your tear film and meibomian gland health.

Every management plan we recommend is based on your specific clinical findings. This is a dedicated specialist service delivered by professionals with focused training in dry eye management — not a standard optometry appointment with drops added on.

Clinical Services

Dedicated dry eye diagnosis & treatment.

Every service is delivered by specialist optometrists registered with the College of Optometrists, using clinical-grade equipment.

01

Tear Film Analysis

Non-invasive assessment of your tear film using specialist diagnostic technology. We measure tear quality, stability and evaporation rate to establish a clear clinical picture of your dry eye presentation.

Assessment fee applies · Please call for pricing
02

Meibography

Infrared imaging of the meibomian glands in your eyelids — the glands responsible for producing the essential oil layer of your tear film. Meibomian gland dysfunction is one of the most common causes of evaporative dry eye.

Included in full assessment
03

ZEST Treatment

Zocular Eyelid System Treatment — a professional in-clinic lid margin cleaning procedure using okra-based gel to remove biofilm and debris at the lid margin. Suitable for blepharitis and MGD. Results vary between patients.

Treatment fee applies · Following assessment
Book an Assessment

Take the first step towards an answer.

If your eyes are persistently dry, gritty, sore or uncomfortable — particularly if drops are providing little relief — a specialist assessment can establish exactly what is happening and why. An assessment fee applies.
