ECA offers industry leading diagnostic and surgical techniques performed for the first time in Australia and in some cases the world. This includes the first retinal reattachment surgery in a dog in Australia performed in September 2016. Plus ECA is the first clinic worldwide to perform corneal endothelial transplant surgery. ECA has also developed a radical new technique for eyelid repair, now used as one of the mainstays of eyelid surgery - the "lip to lid" transposition.
ECA offers industry leading diagnostic services including high frequency (UBM) ultrasound and electroretinography and ocular tear film analysis with our recently acquired Tear Film Analyser.
ECA practices out of 2 Sydney locations - Artarmon and Yagoona. The team also travels, usually once a month to other areas around NSW such as Newcastle, Central Coast, Orange, Bathurst, Lithgow, Blue Mountains, South Coast as well as Canberra.
ECA also has a professional team of veterinary nurses and administrative staff, extending the high quality of service across all areas of the practice. Furthermore ECA works with human ophthalmologists to assist with both retinal and corneal surgeries, as well as specialist veterinary anesthetists to provide the best service possible.

A consultation with Eye Clinic For Animals is by appointment only and clients also need a referral from practitioners. Please do not turn up unexpectedly at one of our clinics as our specialists may not be able to see you at that time.
Jeff and Cameron do trips outside of Sydney. Generally we will go out West via the Blue Mountains, Lithgow, Bathurst and Orange on the first Tuesday and Wednesday of the month, Newcastle and the Central Coast on the second Wednesday of the month and Wollongong and the South Coast to Albion Park and then onto Bowral, Moss Vale, Goulburn and Canberra the third Tuesday & Wednesday of the month.
We are veterinary ophthalmology specialists. Generally speaking, we will not do things that general practitioners ordinarily do such as vaccinate or worm animals, scale teeth under anesthesia, provide flea treatments etc. This is not our area of expertise.
We are able to supply referring veterinarians with various medications which we compound or have a compounding pharmacist do for us. This includes but is not limited to tacrolimus ointment, cyclosporine drops, sodium chloride gel, idoxuridine and itraconazole ointment.
An eye examination will usually take between 10 minutes to 30 minutes. We may need to perform other diagnostic tests as well. Our specialised knowledge and equipment allow a thorough eye exam much more than a general veterinarian can offer. This is after all what we have been trained to do.
Veterinary ophthalmologists only deal with eye problems. They do not deal with anything other than the eyes, in spite of how trivial something may be. If there are other issues that need to be addressed, then you will be referred back to your local veterinarian for treatment.

This includes but isn't limited to flea control, worming, vaccination, desexing, teeth cleaning etc. Therefore, please do not ask your veterinary ophthalmologist to treat something other than the eye. If there are other issues that need to be addressed, then you will be referred back to your local vet.
