It’s easy to take our eyes for granted, but a 2018 Australian Institute Health & Welfare Report found that vision disorders affected 93% of people aged 65 and over. As we age, the risks of developing various eye diseases and conditions increase — but the good news is that there are some preventative measures you can take to reduce your risk.
The best way to protect your eyes is through an annual professional eye exam and to be aware of any changes in your vision.
At Best Practice Eyecare, our Sunshine Coast ophthalmologist Dr Michael Karpa diagnoses and treats a wide range of eye conditions. Under Dr Karpa’s leadership, Best Practice Eyecare has invested in leading-edge equipment to aid in the diagnosis, treatment and management of common eye diseases.
Here are some conditions that we treat at Best Practice Eyecare together with more information about them by category. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our friendly Sunshine Coast ophthalmology team on (07) 5492 2822.
Based on the Sunshine Coast, we provide ophthalmologist, eye care and surgical services of the highest standard. We treat and manage a wide range of eye conditions including cataracts, glaucoma and macular degeneration and more.
Dr Karpa and team are proud to announce that as of Monday, the 15th of July 2024, we will be opening our beautiful new purpose-built clinic at 35 Bulcock Street, Caloundra.
