FAQ’s for Eye Doctors & Surgeons in Adelaide

Yes, in most cases, you need a referral from a general practitioner (GP) or an optometrist to see an Eye Doctor or Surgeon in Adelaide.

This referral is important as it provides the Eye Doctor with necessary medical and eye health information.

It’s also essential for Medicare rebates. In emergency situations, you may be able to see an Eye Doctor without a referral.

In Australia, an Optometrist is a healthcare professional who can examine eyes, prescribe and fit eyeglasses and contact lenses, and detect eye diseases.

An Ophthalmologist, on the other hand, is a medical doctor who specialises in eye and vision care, including the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, and they can perform eye surgery.

For more complex eye conditions or surgeries, you would typically be referred to an Ophthalmologist like Kingswood Eye Centre & Hills Eye Centre.

It’s recommended that adults have their eyes checked by an optometrist every two years.

However, if you have a pre-existing eye condition, a family history of eye diseases, or if you are over 40 years old, you might need to have your eyes checked more frequently.

Your Eye Doctor can provide specific recommendations based on your individual circumstances.

Currently, the only effective treatment for cataracts is surgery, where the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with an artificial one.

While cataracts cannot be cured without surgery, early cataract symptoms may be managed with updated eyeglass prescriptions and better lighting conditions.

However, as cataracts progress, surgery is usually necessary to restore vision.

Laser eye surgery, such as LASIK, is generally considered safe for suitable candidates and is a common procedure in Australia.

Suitability for laser eye surgery depends on various factors including the health of your eyes, your age, your vision prescription, and the thickness of your corneas.

An Eye Doctor or Surgeon can assess your suitability for the procedure during a consultation.
