You and Your Eyes
To open up the world for our patients and help them see naturally, Medownick Laser Clinic specialises in performing surgeries that correct what is known as “refractive errors” in the eyes. Refractive errors relate to the shape of the cornea at the front of the eye, which bends and refracts light in such a way that objects might seem blurry or out-of-focus at certain distances.
Refractive errors we correct
Refractive errors we correct
Short-sightedness (myopia)

If you are myopic, close-up objects are clear but the distance becomes a blur.
Long-sightedness (hypermetropia)

If you are hypermetropic, you can see things in the distance but up-close is blurry.
We also correct these non-refractive conditions

Cataracts

Cataracts grow inside the lens and cause a gradual clouding of the vision, dulling of colours, and glare at night.
Presbyopia

Presbyopia starts with the need for reading glasses, and slowly progresses to impact distance vision as well.
Keratoconus

Keratoconus is a progressive condition that causes the cornea to thin and the eyes to become cone-shaped.
Medownick has access to some of the most advanced technologies and most experienced refractive ophthalmologists in Australia, so we are able to carefully tailor our surgeries and techniques to every patient, formulating a unique and optimal plan for your unique eyes, your health, your lifestyle, and your vision goals.
