Our Story
This optometry clinic exists to make a difference. To enhance people's lives with world-class preventative eye care for all.
Our optometrist Dr Philip Cheng established this clinic because he is passionate about helping children and adults see better. He also recognises a need in today's increasingly retail-driven optical industry to give patients a choice where clinical care comes first. We provide a high level of personal attention and trusted professional services that our valued clients have come to expect. With a very high degree of myopia himself, Philip knows exactly what it is like to live with this eye condition and the very real eye health risks that come with it. Unfortunately myopia control options didn't exist when he was young to prevent his eyes from worsening. Now, it's certainly possible to help kids with myopia and Philip is determined to use his expertise and knowledge in this field to make a difference for the eyesight and eye health of today's children growing up to be adults of tomorrow. |
