Independent optometry · Belgrave, VIC
Thorough, evidence-based eye care for every age — built on continuity, genuine relationships and a love of the Hills community. Opening 18 July 2026.
Our story
Belgrave Eye Care began with optometrists Dr Bridie Homfray and Dr Hannah Skehan, who shared a clear vision — to deliver comprehensive eye care in a warm, welcoming environment, right in the heart of the Hills community.
Having both worked in the Yarra Ranges for many years, we built a deep appreciation for the people, the pace and the strong sense of community that makes the Hills so special. We believe in time, trust and continuity of care — listening properly, explaining clearly, and supporting families through every stage of their journey.

What we do
More than a standard eye test — we offer specialty services usually reserved for larger practices, delivered with small-clinic warmth.
Thorough assessments of vision and eye health for the whole family, using modern diagnostic technology.
Specialised contact lens fitting for both hard and soft contact lenses, including orthokeratology lenses.
Gentle, specialised assessments for developing eyes, supporting healthy vision through the school years and beyond.
Evidence-based programs to slow the progression of short-sightedness in children, including specialised lenses and ongoing monitoring.
Advanced retinal scanning to detect, monitor and manage conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and cataracts.
Regular retinal assessments to detect and monitor the effects of diabetes on your eyes and protect your long-term vision.
Why Belgrave Eye Care
Unlike corporate optometrists where you see a different clinician each visit, we build long-term relationships with our patients and families — so your eye health is understood over time, not from scratch.
"We want to provide thorough, evidence-based eye care for patients of all ages — and to support our community to manage their vision close to home."— Dr Bridie Homfray & Dr Hannah Skehan, founders of Belgrave Eye Care
