Cataract Surgery for Heidelberg Patients

Cataract Surgery near Heidelberg

Patients from Heidelberg and the inner-northeast — including Heidelberg Heights, Heidelberg West, Rosanna, Macleod, and Viewbank — are well served by Northern Eye Consultants at Northpark Hospital Consulting Rooms, Bundoora, approximately 15 minutes by car. Heidelberg is an established medical precinct, home to Austin Health, Mercy Hospital, and a wide network of GPs and specialist practitioners. Northern Eye Consultants provides a specialist referral pathway for Heidelberg's medical community when cataract surgery, glaucoma management, medical retina, or other subspecialty ophthalmology services are required.

Heidelberg's proximity to the Austin Hospital means many patients in the area are already familiar with specialist care in the northern suburbs corridor. Our practice works collaboratively with GPs and optometrists across the Heidelberg region, and we welcome both urgent and routine referrals. Patients coming from Heidelberg can reach our Bundoora rooms via Burgundy Street, Bell Street, and Plenty Road — with free street parking and a paid car park available at Northpark Hospital.

Surgery is performed at Northpark Private Hospital, adjacent to our consulting rooms at 135 Plenty Road, Bundoora — a modern, purpose-built ophthalmology facility serving Melbourne's northern corridor. Our specialist team holds FRANZCO fellowship and offers the full range of intraocular lens options: standard monofocal, toric, multifocal, and extended depth of focus (EDOF) lenses including the newly available TECNIS PureSee IOL.

A referral from your GP or optometrist is required to attend for a specialist consultation. Referrals can be sent to our rooms by post, fax ( 03 9466 8833), or electronically via HealthLink EDI: nthneyec.
