Optometry

The Optometrist—Dr. Shelley Hopkins & QUT students visits every second month

If you have any concerns about your eye health, or vision come and see us at CRAICCHS.

Our Health Worker is available to do a retinal scan as part of any visit to the GP and our Doctors can set up the referral to our Optometrist, who can also refer to the IDEAS van.

Check our calendar to see when they are visiting again

• Annual check-ups—these are important if you already have glasses
• Subsidised glasses—however, there can be some cost for patients if you choose a more expensive frame

Appointments are available to every patient of CRAICCHS—discuss with your doctor for a referral.

A Nurse or Health Worker will contact you with your appointment details.
