Find Your Perfect Glasses at No Cost with Your Health Fund


We understand that everyone’s needs and budgets are different, so we offer a range of glasses that may be available to you at no cost, depending on your health fund and level of coverage. Our selection includes stylish frames and high-quality lenses, ensuring that you receive the best value for your benefit.

Bring in your health fund details, and we’ll help you find the best options available to you. It’s all part of our commitment to providing affordable, high-quality eye care for all our patients.

Medicare Coverage: What’s Included?


If you hold a current Medicare card, you have access to essential eye care services at no additional cost:

  • One comprehensive eye test every three years for those under 65
  • One comprehensive eye test every year if you’re 65 or older
  • Contact lens consultations for a specific range of optical prescriptions
  • Eye tests as needed if you have an eye condition, such as glaucoma or macular degeneration

However, Medicare does not cover all eye tests. Specific services like those for contact lenses, vision therapy, or dry eye management may incur additional costs.
