About our specialists 

Launceston Eye Institute (LEI) was established in 2008 in the redeveloped Paton and Baldwin building in Thistle Street West, South Launceston. Whilst maintaining the external appearance of the building the interior was renovated to provide a modern and spacious medical facility for the rapidly advancing field of Ophthalmology. Our Ulverstone rooms were opened in 2014 offering our many North West Coast patients a closer more convenient option for their ongoing ophthalmic care.

Our ophthalmologists provide care in general and subspecialist areas of Ophthalmology, which enables us to offer our patients treatment in cataract, ocular plastics, glaucoma, uveitis, medical and surgical retina and corneal treatment. Technology is of prime importance and the equipment at Launceston Eye Institute allows care to remain at the leading edge.

An experienced and dedicated team of ophthalmic technicians, nurses, and administrative staff strive to put our patients needs first whilst supporting our ophthalmologists to provide your ophthalmic treatment.
