Today marks the start of , an initiative led by the Macular Disease Foundation Australia (MDFA) to highlight macular diseases, which are the leading causes of severe vision loss and legal blindness in Australia.

Macular degeneration affects your ability to see fine detail at any distance. Early signs of macular disease may be missed but include straight lines appearing curved, struggling to read and struggling to identify faces.

At George & Matilda, we use high-quality diagnostic tools, including OCT scans, which can help pick up signs of macular degeneration.

Your phone tracks your steps.
Your watch tracks your sleep.
What tracks your eye health?

Answer: an OCT scan! In eye care, we use OCT scanning to keep a close, detailed view of your retinal health over time.

OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) lets our optometrists see the layers beneath the surface of your retina, helping us monitor subtle changes that aren’t visible in a regular eye exam. It’s a quick scan, but it gives us a deeper understanding of your eye health and supports early detection when it matters most.

It’s just one of the ways we use advanced technology to give you more informed, more personalised care.

Your vision is worth it.

Celebrating 70 years of Carrera this year!

In 1956, Austrian visionary Wilhelm Anger named his eyewear company after The Carrera Panamericana, a 7-day, 3,000-km vintage rally race across Mexico that was known as one of the world’s most dangerous races. The Carrera Panamericana captured exactly what he wanted to build: eyewear that pushes limits.

Seventy years later, Carrera is still doing this. From Porsche Design collaborations to the faces of Brad Pitt, Niki Lauda, and Rihanna, Carrera became the eyewear of champions.

Selected George & Matilda practices stock this iconic brand. Book a visit today to experience their bold design for yourself.

Myopia (short‑sightedness) is when distant things look blurry and it’s becoming increasingly common in kids. The good news? There are ways to help slow it down.

👁️ Give their eyes a break
Kids spend loads of time on books, tablets and computers, but too much close‑up work can speed up myopia. Try the 20/20 rule: take a 20-second break to look across the room after every 20 minutes of screen time or near-work.

🌲 More outdoor time = happier eyes
Just 1 to 2 hours outside each day can help slow myopia progression.

If you’d like to learn more, chat to us about kids’ myopia.
