Astigmatism sounds technical, but it’s actually very common and easy to understand 👀
It simply means your eye isn’t perfectly round. Think rugby ball rather than football. Because of this shape, light doesn’t focus evenly, which can cause blurred, shadowed, or distorted vision, especially noticeable at night.
🚴‍♀️ Why you might feel it more
Night driving or riding, bright LED signs, streetlights, and city glare can make astigmatism symptoms stand out even more.
🎯 The good news
Fixing astigmatism isn’t just about wearing glasses. It’s about having the right lenses, measured precisely for your eyes. Even a tiny change in lens alignment can affect how clearly you see.
📍 Visit Adelaide City Optometrist for a comprehensive eye health check and personalised lens recommendations designed for how you see and how you live.
Clear vision starts with understanding your eyes 💙

Oakley HyperGrip™ Technology | A New Era of Performance Eyewear

👓 Celebrating 50 years of innovation in sports eyewear, Oakley introduces HyperGrip™ Technology, designed to solve the age-old challenge of fit versus comfort.

✨ Instead of rigid temples that squeeze the head, HyperGrip™ features a wrap-style suspension design that distributes pressure evenly around the head. This keeps the frame secure during intense movement, while remaining comfortable enough to wear for 5 to 20 hours straight.

🏃‍♂️ Built for athletes, active lifestyles, and anyone who demands performance without compromise.

👉 Experience Oakley Stunt Devil, Stunt Glider, and Stunt Wing with HyperGrip™ Technology at Adelaide City Optometrist.

Stepping a little outside the comfort zone and loving every second of it ✨

Our client usually plays it safe, but the bold purple MATTEW frame and the sparkling KALEOS sunglasses caught her eye and sparked a question… could this be her look for 2026?
The answer is a confident yes!

The MATTEW frame brings artistic structure and personality, while KALEOS adds a playful, contemporary edge straight from Barcelona. Two very different looks, both full of character, and both absolutely her.

👓 Eyewear has always reflected its moment in time.

Once understated, now confidently worn, Geek-Chic frames are returning with a modern edge. Slim silhouettes and thoughtful designs are redefining what it means to wear glasses today, not as something to hide, but as a form of self-expression.
As fashion continues to circle back, eyewear reminds us that smart style never really disappears. It simply evolves.
Swipe through to explore the idea, then visit us in clinic to find frames that feel distinctly you.

February is Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Awareness Month 💜

AMD is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss in people over 50, often affecting central vision and the ability to see fine details. The good news is that early detection matters. Regular comprehensive eye exams can help identify changes early and support better long-term outcomes.

This month is a reminder to look after your eye health by
• booking routine eye checks
• protecting your eyes from UV exposure
• maintaining a healthy diet rich in leafy greens
• managing risk factors such as smoking and blood pressure

If you are over 50, have a family history of AMD, or simply want peace of mind, now is the time to act.

📍 Book your comprehensive eye exam at Adelaide City Optometrist and take a proactive step in protecting your vision.

January is Glaucoma Awareness Month 👁️

Glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it can develop without noticeable symptoms in its early stages. Regular eye examinations play a vital role in detecting glaucoma early and protecting your long-term vision.

If you have a family history of glaucoma, are over 40, or simply have not had an eye check in a while, January is a great time to book.

📅 Book an eye health check at Adelaide City Optometrist and take a proactive step in protecting your vision.
