Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our detailed eye examinations use advanced diagnostic technology to assess vision quality and detect eye diseases. We conduct refraction tests, binocular vision analysis, and retinal scans to create custom vision correction plans. Patients receive clear explanations of their eye health and treatment options.
Orthokeratology
This non-surgical treatment reshapes the cornea overnight using custom contact lenses. Ideal for myopia patients, it provides clear daytime vision without glasses. We offer precise fitting and ongoing monitoring to ensure optimal results and eye health.
Children's Vision Therapy
Specialised programs address developmental vision issues in children. Our orthoptists treat strabismus, amblyopia, and learning-related vision problems through exercises and corrective lenses, ensuring proper visual development during critical growth years.
Macula Health Analysis
Advanced OCT scans and macular pigment testing detect early signs of age-related macular degeneration. We monitor changes over time and recommend dietary interventions based on clinical research to preserve central vision.
Glaucoma Screening
Comprehensive glaucoma assessments include intraocular pressure measurement, optic nerve imaging, and visual field testing. Early detection allows timely intervention to prevent vision loss through medication or specialist referrals.

Report
I highly recommend Vision Excellence and Dr Lee Pepper.
Ive visited many different optometrists over the years and all of them had failed to recognise/diagnose an eye condition I must have had since childhood.
Dr Lee was THE optometrist to recognise that there was something not quite right with how my eye/vision worked and did several extra tests to confirm his suspicions and then referred me to an orthoptist who works literally in the same office. I was then properly diagnosed with intermittent mixed exotropia, which Ive been correcting with eye therapy sessions. That alone has made me

Ive had one of the best experiences with Vision Excellence. Dr Pepper was so caring and he took his time to listen and solve my problems. Kerryann is the best person to deal with. Ive never felt a rush and even spend almost an hour to choose a frame. I highly recommend them if you are after a full check up for your eyes.

The experience and attention to detail that Vision Excellence provided me was supurb. Lee and his team took the time to explain what the issues were and proivided advice and solutions which was not about selling me products.

The location is good having access to visitors parking. The office was clean, tidy and very well equipped. Kerry and Lee were absolutely professional and personable. It took 1.5 hours for me to do a complete test which was totally worth it. It might costs you more compare to other eye test centres like OPSM, SpecSaver, etc. but I highly recommend Vision Excellence if you look for a professional test and peace of mind.

Ive spent the better part of the last year undergoing orthokeratology at Vision Excellence, and cant speak highly enough of the care, support and results Ive received. I was told about orthokeratology on my first visit to Vision Excellence after wearing glasses for the last 10 years, and my vision is now better than I can ever remember it being. I used to wear soft contact lenses to the gym, but never saw clearly out of them and would be peeling them off my eyes when I got home due to them drying out. Even my glasses never managed to achieve this quality of vision. The added benefit of
