Expert ophthalmology, cutting-edge technology, close to home.
Dr Adrian Hunt is permanently based out of Miranda, which means Sutherland Shire patients enjoy rapid and frequent access when needed (such as those needing regular injections or laser therapy). Next day follow-up appoints can be accommodated.
All patients referred to our clinic for investigation will undergo a visual assessment with our Orthoptist and Ophthalmic Assistants prior to being seen by Dr Hunt. Our small team ensures you receive a personal and friendly experience when you visit us.
Your results are rapidly reported on by Dr Hunt, including images, and returned to your referrer generally within 24-hours.
Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration affects central vision due to retinal damage. Early detection and treatment help slow progression and preserve sight.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery removes the cloudy natural lens and replaces it with a clear artificial lens to restore vision and clarity.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy damages retinal blood vessels due to diabetes, causing vision loss if untreated. Early detection and treatment are essential.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma damages the optic nerve, often due to increased eye pressure. Early diagnosis and treatment help preserve vision and prevent blindness.
Optical Biometer
ZEISS IOLMaster 700
Dr Hunt offers the industry leading ZEISS IOLMaster 700 optical biometer from his Miranda rooms, which provides highly precise ocular measurements. Combined with Pentacam corneal tomography, this ensures your cataract surgical plan is tailored to your visual requirements to the absolute highest standard, reducing the chances of an unexpected refractive outcome.
The in-room ZEISS system integrates directly with the in-theatre ZEISS OPMI LUMERA® 700 surgical microscope via CALLISTO software, enabling seamless transfer of biometric data and real-time eyepiece overlays a heads-up display for accurate toric intraocular lens alignment.
