Laser Vision Correction

From getting a referral to surgery to recovery – here is how it works.

Referral

A referral letter to one of our doctors from your GP or Optometrist. A referral will allow you to claim from Medicare. If you don’t have a regular or Optometrist, please contact us on 1300 128 114 and we will be happy to assist.

Consultation

A complimentary obligation fee consultation at our two clinic in Brookvale and Darlinghurst can be booked online or call us on 1300 128 114. This free assessment will allow you to find out if you’re suitable for laser eye surgery. We also offer same day consultation and surgery please ask us when you book.

Treatment

After your consultation and you’re found to be suitable for laser vision correction, the procedure will be done at our state of the art eye laser centre in Darlinghurst.

Recovery & Clear Vision

After the surgery you will have a soft contact lens bandage for 3 days to help with the healing process. You can resume your normal work in 4-5 days.

You’re in safe hands

Helping you improve your vision is very important to us. With over 25 years’ experience, the Sydney Eye Clinic specialises in treating numerous eye conditions, from long and short sightedness through to cataracts and glaucoma. Before undertaking treatment, we want to ensure our patients are well informed about how the eye works, their conditions and all the treatment options available.

“We understand that we will only ever be as good as our last surgical procedure. That is why we are passionate about constantly pursuing the best possible outcome for our patients.”

For over 25 years Dr Sebban has been constantly evolving his practice, refining his surgical techniques and screening processes, and ensuring his patients have access to the latest technologies and procedures.

Dr Michael Thornton

Clinical Lecturer, Sydney University, School of Medicine
BMedSc(Hon), MBBS(Hon), MS(Vasc), MMed(OphSci), FRANZCO

Dr Thornton has become Dr Ilan Sebban’s surgical partner, and has the experience and skills to deliver exceptional surgical outcomes. Dr Thornton and Dr Sebban use eye drop anaesthesia for cataract surgery, which is the safest method of anaesthetic, and allows for very comfortable operations and rapid visual recovery. Dr Thornton and Dr Sebban also use the latest in 3D visualization technology for improved depth of focus during surgery, and indeed we are the only surgery centre in the Northern Beaches to have this advanced equipment. We believe in having the latest technology to ensure the most accurate, and best possible results.

We understand that cataract surgery can be intimidating, which is why we prioritise patient education and comfort every step of the way. Please remember that the results of cataract surgery can be life-changing, allowing you to see clearly and participate in activities you may have been unable to enjoy before. Many of our patients report improved vision, increased independence from spectacles, and an overall enhancement in their quality of life.

If you’re considering cataract surgery, you want to know that you’re making the right decision for your vision and quality of sight. We understand that every patient is unique, which is why we offer a range of lens options to help you achieve the vision correction you need, whether it be for distance, reading, or a combination of both.
