Tahmoor Eye Testing

Regular eye testing plays a critical role in maintaining overall eye health and ensuring accurate vision correction. At Eyepower in Tahmoor, comprehensive eye examinations are conducted using industry-recognised methods and modern equipment to assess both vision clarity and ocular health. Eye tests evaluate factors such as refractive error (short- or long-sightedness), eye movement coordination, and the ability to focus across distances. These assessments can also help detect signs of conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy at early stages. The testing process is suitable for adults, children, and older individuals, and allows for prescription updates as vision needs change.

Routine eye testing is an important part of preventive health care. For appointment availability or enquiries, call (02) 4683 1249.

Optometry

At Eyepower, we offer comprehensive optometry services for people of all ages, including children, adults, and seniors. Our experienced optometrists conduct eye examinations to assess vision clarity and identify underlying eye conditions early, such as cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Regular check-ups support lifelong eye health and ensure your prescription is always up to date.

OCT Scanning

We use advanced Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to capture detailed images of the retina and optic nerve. This non-invasive scan enables the early detection of serious eye conditions, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration, before symptoms appear. OCT is a vital tool in protecting your long-term vision and eye health.

Myopia Management

Myopia (short-sightedness) is becoming increasingly common, especially in children. At Eyepower, we offer tailored myopia management solutions to help slow the progression of myopia and reduce the risk of associated eye complications later in life. Our treatments may include prescription lenses, lifestyle advice, and evidence-based therapies designed with your child’s eye health in mind.

Dry Eye

Dry eye is a common and often chronic condition that can cause irritation, redness, and blurred vision. Our team can diagnose the underlying cause—whether it's environmental, age-related, or linked to screen use—and provide personalised treatment to relieve symptoms. Treatment may involve specialised eye drops, lifestyle changes, or targeted therapies to restore moisture and comfort.

Driving Vision Assessment

Clear vision is essential for safe driving, particularly when it comes to night vision, peripheral awareness, and distance clarity. Our optometrists provide vision assessments suitable for driving licence requirements, including RMS standards in NSW. If a prescription is needed, we can provide corrective lenses tailored for optimal visual performance behind the wheel.

What an Eye Test Typically Involves

An eye test typically begins with a discussion of your visual history, lifestyle, and any current concerns. This is followed by vision testing, where charts and lenses are used to measure clarity and refractive error. Pupil responses, eye muscle movement, and peripheral vision may also be checked. Where appropriate, a slit lamp or retinal imaging system is used to assess the health of the cornea, lens, retina, and optic nerve. Children may undergo additional visual development assessments. Test results are used to determine whether prescription glasses or contact lenses are required, and to identify any signs of eye strain or condition progression.
