Get to know the faces behind our services and discover why Wicks Eyecare has been a trusted name in the community for over 30 years. From the youngest members of your family to those experiencing the complexities associated with ageing eyes, we offer services designed to meet every vision need. Regular comprehensive eye exams at Wicks Eyecare are the cornerstone of maintaining good vision and eye health. Our exams are thorough, assessing everything from visual acuity to eye health, ensuring we catch any changes early so that we can be proactive about the quality of your sight.

We understand the importance of early eye health, so we tailor our paediatric eye care services to the specific needs of young eyes. Regular eye exams for children are vital to ensure normal vision development and identify any issues affecting their learning and development. We also offer behavioural therapy to help children overcome problems processing their sight. With advanced diagnostic tools, we manage ocular diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy, aiming for early detection and ongoing management to preserve vision and enhance quality of life.

Do Private Health Funds Cover Eye Exams?

Private health funds typically do not cover eye exams, but many policies offer significant rebates on glasses, prescriptions, or contact lenses. Coverage varies widely between policies, with some covering up to 100% of costs associated with eyewear.

Are All Eye Exams Covered by Medicare?

While Medicare covers a broad range of eye care services, it's important to note that not all eye exams are covered. More specific exams may incur additional costs, including those for contact lenses beyond the basic prescription range, vision therapy, or advanced dry eye diagnostics.
