Eye Care Across Perth's North-East, From Bassendean Optical

Wherever you live across Perth's north-east, good eye care should be close to home, not a trek across the city. Bassendean Optical is one practice, run from a single set of rooms at Bassendean Shopping Village, and it has cared for local eyes since 1991. From Morley in the west to Midland and the Swan Valley in the east, the areas we serve all sit within a short drive of that one door. Five optometrists and a vision therapist work here, covering the everyday eye test and the level of care many practices send elsewhere. Wherever you are starting from, you can book online or call (08) 9377 2811.

The Suburbs We Serve Across Perth's North-East

Wherever you live across Perth's north-east, good eye care should be close to home, not a trek across the city. Bassendean Optical is one practice, run from a single set of rooms at Bassendean Shopping Village, and it has cared for local eyes since 1991. From Morley in the west to Midland and the Swan Valley in the east, the areas we serve all sit within a short drive of that one door.

For most people on this list, getting here is a short drive, because the practice sits near the middle of the area it serves. If you are coming from one of these suburbs, you are within easy reach:

​

  • Morley: about ten minutes to the west.

  • Bayswater: neighbouring, just along the Swan River.

  • Beechboro: immediately to the north.

  • Midland: to the east, at the gateway to the Swan Valley.

  • Caversham: on the edge of the Swan Valley.

  • South Guildford: a short drive on from Guildford.

  • Kiara: the suburb right next door.

  • Guildford: the historic Swan Valley town close by.

  • Redcliffe: minutes away, beside Perth Airport.

 

If your suburb is not named above but you are nearby, you are still welcome. The practice serves the wider north-east and eastern suburbs from this one location.

​

One Practice for the Full Range of Eye Care

Whatever brings you in is looked after here, not sent across town the moment it goes past a standard test.

 

  • General eye tests and eye health: comprehensive examinations, including OCT scans and OPTOS wide-angle retinal imaging.

  • Children's and behavioural vision: assessment and vision therapy for how young eyes focus, track and work together for reading and learning.

  • Myopia control: slowing the progression of short-sightedness while children's eyes are still growing.

  • Neuro-optometry: vision assessment and rehabilitation after brain injury, stroke or concussion.

  • Dry eye care: assessing and managing ocular surface disease, with an IPL and LLLT clinic coming soon.

  • Advanced contact lenses: fittings for hard-to-fit eyes, high corrections and complex corneal conditions.

Keeping all of this under one roof matters most when someone needs more than one part of it. A child on a myopia-control lens may also need a behavioural vision assessment. An adult managing their sight after a stroke may also have dry eye. One practice, one record, one team that already knows the history.

One team for the whole catchment: the optometrists behind Bassendean Optical

Running as an independent practice is what makes that full scope possible: the optometrists decide the time and the tests each person actually needs. Bassendean Optical has cared for eyes at this corner of Bassendean since 1991, and several of the team have looked after patients here for more than twenty years.

 

Where the Practice Is, and When It Is Open

The clinic is open Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm, with a late evening clinic on Thursday running to 7:30pm, and Saturday mornings from 8:30am to 1pm. It is closed on Sunday. Medicare, Private Health and Claiming on the Spot

Eligible eye examinations may be eligible for a Medicare rebate, and for anything covered by your private health extras, the in-store HICAPS terminal settles the claim on the spot, so you pay only the gap. Billing is mixed, because the cost of a visit depends on what it involves: a standard eye test, a longer assessment and a contact-lens fitting are not the same appointment. For current fees, or to check what your own fund covers, call the practice on (08) 9377 2811.

Common Questions About Booking

​​

   MY OPTOMETRIST REFERRED ME FOR AN ASSESSMENT. IS THAT DONE HERE?

​

​Yes. Behavioural vision assessment, neuro-optometry assessment, dry eye management and advanced fitting of contact lenses, is handled in-house. If something genuinely needs an ophthalmologist or another health professional, you will be pointed in the right direction.

​

   BOOKING FROM ANYWHERE

​

For a catchment this size, the value of one practice is simple. Begin with the suburb you are coming from or the kind of appointment you need, and the rest is one short trip. Book online whenever it suits, or call (08) 9377 2811 to talk the right appointment through first.
