We were originally located at Altona gate shopping centre for over 30 years but decided that Altona Village was the best spot for our new location. Here we have more space including 2 consultation room and a large vision therapy room for our vision therapy clinic, known as Vision Advantage. You’ll find us right next to the dentist. You’ll see an incredible artwork on the wall outside our new practice. See how many eyes you can find!
