Children's Eye Tests in Brisbane — Bulk Billed Under 18
Children often don't realise their vision isn't normal, so problems can go unnoticed. We provide child-friendly eye tests and bulk bill all children under 18. Serving families across Holland Park, Mount Gravatt and Greenslopes.
Book an AppointmentWhy children's eye tests matter
Much of what children learn is visual, yet many vision problems in children go undetected — kids often don't know what "normal" vision looks like, so they don't report a problem. Undiagnosed issues can quietly affect reading, learning, concentration and confidence.
Conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (eye turn) and short-sightedness respond best to early detection, which is why regular checks during childhood are so valuable.
When should my child be tested?
We recommend a child's first comprehensive eye exam before they start school — around age four or five. After that, regular checks help catch any changes as they grow. If you notice squinting, sitting very close to screens, frequent headaches, or an eye that turns, it's worth booking sooner.
A welcoming experience
Our clinic is child-friendly and experienced with young patients. We keep the appointment relaxed and explain everything along the way — to both you and your child. And because we bulk bill all children under 18, there's no out-of-pocket cost for their exam.
