Rocked into this shop at 10-45am looking for an impromptu eye exam on a Sunday morning. I was…read moresuprised that they had staff available. (I noticed blood in my eye on Wednesday morning and it hadn't receded so thought it better to be safe than sorry). There were two shop staff. One took my details and medicare information, and asked me to come back a little-after-11 when the optometrist would be available. I came back around 11-15am, and whilst I had a little bit of wait, standing around whilst the two staff served other people glasses/prescriptions, when they were free they acknowledged that I had been waiting and informed the optometrist that I was waiting to be seen. The optometrist herself was extremely sweet and friendly, and made sure that I was comfortable with each of the tests she performed. She was reassuring and explained the equipment and what to expect before she conducted the tests (e.g. one of the tests is a pressure test where the machine blows air into your wide open eye --- she warned me what to expect so I wouldn't freak out --- yes I still freaked out hahaha, but at least I was ready for it). I never knew that optometrists had such sophisticated equipment (I went through 4 separate machines for tests), and it was great to get a macular check at the same time. The final high resolution eye scan cost $75, and isn't covered by medicare, but the rest of the standard testing was all covered. I found the optometrist very skilled, reassuring and informative. It meant the whole experience which could have been daunting was instead very straightforward, calm and easy. If you are worried about your eyes and need a check up, I would gladly recommend visiting this OPSM, it was an enjoyable experience and the staff were attentive and professional. They also stock a wide range of prescription glasses and frames.

As someone who has worn glasses for close to 40 years, OPSM is pretty familiar territory to me…read more Back in the day, OPSM was really the only choice when you needed glasses. There were a few independent eyewear suppliers around but only OPSM had a big enough range of frames to make sure you could get something that didn't make you look like a total dork (which was much more difficult back then). Having said that, I did spend my entire childhood looking like a total dork... but that wasn't because of my glasses, that was just me. These days there are competitors to OPSM. Some of them are cheaper. Some of them are faster... but you know, for the total package of price, quality and service, you just can't go past the old faithful. The range is good. The service is good. They give free lifetime adjustments (which is great when your chosen sport involves being hit in the head with a metal bar). The in house optometrists have done my eye checks since I moved to Hornsby 20 years ago. Now they do my kids eye checks as well (fortunately, all normal... my short sightedness has been cancelled out by my wife's long sightedness resulting in perfect vision). I buy my frames and lenses here. I still look like a total dork but its not because of my glasses. Its still just me.

This bulk billing clinic has seen us through many years of fevers, flu seasons, innoculations, and…read moreman flues. All of the doctors here have been brilliant. The service (especially for something that is bulk billed) is outstanding. The only issue is that it is popular. On occasion you'll be in the waiting room for a while. So take a breath, sit back and watch the tv and wait. It is the best clinic in Hornsby.
