Professional Fees
General Eye Examination
Standard Eye Consultation: Bulk billed (No out of pocket cost for eligible Medicare cardholders)
Advanced Contact Lens Examination
Comprehensive Initial suitability assessment: $100 (Cornea + ocular surface mapping fee)
Your first visit is designed to identify the cause of your symptoms, assess eye health, and map the front of your eyes to guide safe, customised options.
Includes:
Full vision and eye health assessment
Corneal + ocular surface mappipng (for customised advanced lens design)
Anterior eye photography
Clear diagnosis and personalised treatment plan
Dilated exam (if clinically required)
Advanced Contact Lens Packages
What’s typically included:
Lens design + ordering
Dispense appointment + handling training
Refinement visits within the included period
Lens exchanges/remakes within the included warranty window
Advanced lens fitting often needs diagnostic trials, custom ordering, settling checks, and refinements. Packages bundle the clinical time and lens work into a clear structure.
Scleral lenses (standard package)
For keratoconus, irregular corneas, post-surgery irregularity, and selected dry-eye cases.
From $2,200 (both eyes)
Single eye: from $1,600
Includes:
Diagnostic fitting + custom design
Dispense + insertion/removal training
Up to 3 months of refinement visits
Starter care kit
Warranty period covering clinically required design exchanges
Ortho-K (Orthokeratology) package
Overnight lenses for daytime freedom from glasses + myopia management (where clinically suitable).
From $1,800 (Standard)
From $2,200 (Complex / higher prescription or advanced design needs)
Includes:
Suitability assessment + corneal mapping for lens design
Custom Ortho-K lenses (pair)
Dispense + intensive training
Structured follow-ups in the first 3 months (including early checks)
Starter care kit
Warranty period covering clinically required design exchanges
What makes a case “Complex”?:
Higher myopia / higher astigmatism
Less common corneal shapes requiring advanced lens designs
More iterative refinement expected
Most patients fall into Standard. We only use Complex pricing when advanced designs are clinically required
Scleral lenses (complex design package)
For higher complexity designs (e.g. significant scleral asymmetry, quadrant-specific landing zones, advanced optics)
From $2,800 (both eyes)
Single eye: from $1,950
Includes:
Standard package plus the additional design work commonly required for complex eyes
We’ll confirm which tier applies after your assessment, based on eye shape and design needs.
Hybrid Lenses package
An alternative option for selected patients when a scleral lens is not preferred or not suitable.
From $1,600 (both eyes)
Single eye: from $1,050
Includes:
Diagnostic fitting + custom design
Hybrid lenses (pair)
Dispense + training
Starter care kit
Refinement visits within 3 month period
Hybrids can be a useful “middle ground” for certain eyes, but we’ll recommend them only when clinically appropriate.
Corneal RGP package
For high astigmatism, mild irregularity, or patients wanting crisp optics in a smaller lens.
From $1,000 (both eyes)
Single eye: from $650
Includes:
Diagnostic trial fitting
Custom RGP lenses (pair)
Dispense + training
Starter care kit
Refinement visits within 3 month period
Ongoing costs to plan for
Most ongoing costs fall into three areas:
Review visits
Replacement lenses
Solutions
The figures are a guide only so you can budget with confidence.
Annual reviews
Most advanced custom lens wearers benefit from regular ocular checks (often every 6–12 months, or sooner if advised).
For Medicare card holders most ocular checkups will be bulk billed.
On rare occasions when bulk billing is not applicable, consultation fee of $65 may apply at review visits.
Replacement lenses
Most custom lenses are replaced around 1.5 - 2 years depending on wear and care
Scleral lens: ~$600-$1000 per lens
Ortho-K: ~$450-$650 per lens
Corneal RGP: ~$300-$400 per lens
Hybrid lenses: ~$500-$700 per lens
Hybrid lenses replacement period may be shorter than other lenses often around 12 months (some may require earlier replacement depending on lens skirt condition and wear)
Solutions
Approximately $30-$50 per month
We’ll recommend a simple, evidence-based care system matched to your lens type and ocular surface needs, and we’ll show you how to keep costs sensible without compromising eye health.
Medicare & Private Health Insurance
-
Medicare covers for the consultation component of the exam, where bulk billing will be applied for clinically warranted ocular examinations.
-
Medicare generally does not cover the cost of contact lenses themselves.
-
Yes. Most "Extras" policies with optical cover will pay a benefit towards the cost of the lenses. We have HICAPS on-site to process this claim instantly, so you only pay the gap.
-
Yes. We understand that specialty vision care is an investment. We can arrange a deposit and instalment plan (e.g., splitting the fee over the first month) to make the process more accessible. Please ask our team.
