OPTOMETRY

Your eyesight is one of your most important senses:
80% of what we recognise comes through our sense of sight.

By protecting your eyes, you will reduce the odds of blindness and vision loss while also staying on top of any developing eye diseases such as cataracts and glaucoma.

​

Not so fun fact: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have six times the rates of blindness as non-Indigenous Australians and three times the rates of vision loss!

​

Kambu Health fully qualified partner optometrists provide a range of services including sight testing and spectacle correction to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of eye disease.

​

Ask your doctor for a referal to our Optometrist if you notice the following symptoms:

​

• any changes to your vision

• headaches when you read or use a computer

• watery eyes or dry eyes

​

An eye test should be performed every two years BUT if you have diabetes, it is recommended to visit the Optometrist each year.

​

Jarjums should have a full eye check when they start school or if they are having trouble with early learning.
