Our eyes are adapting to a new era. We spend hours on our phones, work in front of screens all day, and follow GPS instead of reading signs. As the way we use our eyes changes, the way we care for them must evolve too.
We are proud to be the first dry eye clinic in Australia to make meibomian gland health checks a standard part of every comprehensive eye exam. This sets a new benchmark for both eye care and dry eye treatment.
Located in the heart of Hawthorn, Eyecare Project is redefining what it means to be an optometry clinic. We combine advanced technology with in-house protocols and tailored preparation. As a result, we deliver consistent, measurable improvements for our patients, with every dry eye treatment designed for long-term results.
Many people come to us with significant meibomian gland loss. This first-hand view of the long-term impact of dry eye disease has shaped our proactive approach. By detecting gland problems early, we can start dry eye treatment sooner, protecting your eye health before irreversible damage occurs.
If you need a trusted dry eye clinic in Hawthorn, we are here to raise the standard of care – and lead the way forward.
General Eye Examination
Our general eye examination focuses on early detection and personalised care. Perfect for checking prescriptions for glasses or contact lenses.
In addition, every general booking includes advanced tests such as OCT, retinal imaging, eye pressure checks, and meibography. These allow us to manage your eye health with accuracy and a proactive approach.
Full Dry Eye Assessment
We take a comprehensive approach to treating dry eye, blepharitis, and meibomian gland dysfunction. This approach is designed to find the root cause of your dry eye disease.
Our care includes tailored recommendations, targeted therapies, and dry eye treatments that address the underlying issues. In addition, we use advanced technology to set a baseline, track your progress, and ensure effective results.
Orthokeratology
Experience non-surgical vision correction with orthokeratology. This treatment reshapes your eyes while you sleep, giving you clear vision during the day without glasses or contact lenses. It is suitable for both children and adults, and is a great option for people who experience dry eye from wearing soft contact lenses.
Ocular & Facial Aesthetics
Our Lumenis Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) machine is the only FDA- and TGA-approved device for dry eye treatment. In addition, our protocol rejuvenates the entire face by improving texture, reducing pigmentation, and stimulating collagen production. It also helps manage both facial rosacea and ocular rosacea, while enhancing the results of ongoing dry eye treatment plans.
We also offer precise spot treatments for concerns such as sun spots, redness, and visible capillaries, ensuring each patient receives personalised results.
