Optometrists in Wagga Wagga, NSW

Finding a optometrist in Wagga Wagga

Eye tests, glasses and contact lens fitting, and screening for glaucoma, cataract and diabetic retinopathy. Optometrists register with the Optometry Board of Australia through Ahpra, one registration covering practice in both states. Medicare funds a comprehensive eye examination every three years for people under 65 and every year from 65, so the out of pocket cost usually sits in the frames and lenses. Anything needing an ophthalmologist means a referral out of town, and that wait is worth asking about early.

Wagga Wagga is the largest inland city in NSW, sitting on the Murrumbidgee with Baylis Street running down to the river and Wagga Beach. The Army recruit training centre at Kapooka and RAAF Base Wagga make defence a major employer alongside health and Charles Sturt University. Bomen, north east of the city, holds the abattoir and freight industry and keeps heavy trades busy.

Paid placement does not move that order, and any promoted slot is boxed and labelled where it appears. How we handle advertising.
