Our services

Ophthalmology

Ophthalmology covers all aspects of eye care, including eye tests and screening for eye diseases, medical treatment, laser treatment, complex microsurgery and research.

All eye procedures and surgeries are now conducted at our new, state-of-the art eye hospital, St John of God Subiaco Eye Hospital, to provide our patients a more comfortable and efficient experience specific to their clinical needs. 

The facility is conveniently located across the road from St John of God Subiaco Hospital, and is where many of Western Australia’s most trusted and experienced ophthalmologists choose to admit their patients.
