  • We all love our treats. And just as we treat our teeth, heart and skin to regular checkups, our eyes need treating too! 300,000 Australians are affected by glaucoma, an eye disease that if left undiagnosed and untreated can cause blindness. But if detected early, vision loss can be prevented.

    So, treat yourself, by treating your eyes to a simple test. Book a test with your local optometrist today!

  • When I got glaucoma it really hit home how lucky I was to not lose my sight,” says Kirk Pengilly, who was touring with INXS in the late 1980s when he experienced what felt like daggers being pressed into his eyes.  It was only thanks to pioneering laser surgery at the time that his sight was saved from what was an acute angle-closure glaucoma attack.
