Martin began his career wanting to follow the old adage "prevention is better than the cure". As such he divided his time between testing children in north Queensland and working with Dr Gary Brian, an ophthalmologist with the Fred Hollows Foundation, providing services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders living in Queensland.

This enabled Martin to see first-hand how devastating life could be with a major loss of vision and underlined the necessity of regular, thorough eye examinations in the maintenance of healthy eyes and healthy sight. Martin moved onto owning practices in central Queensland covering an area several times the size of Tasmania.
Services
The Domani company began in 1992 after the founding family arrived in Sydney. The creators draw inspiration from the colours of Australia and are now available throughout the world. A well-known company in the optical industry they are always providing beautiful new models of frames for us, as well as continuing to supply the classics.
Made in France these gorgeous frames come in full rimmed, semi-rimless or rimless construction. They are renowned for achieving the perfect balance between colour and shape. What we love about Oxibis is the use of innovative technology in their design, achieving stronger springs and joints that remain lightweight.
Martin's widespread experience in cities, country towns and remote settlements, with a variety of differing clientele enables him to serve all people, from young children to the elderly. His close working relationship with Ophthalmologists during his time at the Hollows Foundation has provided Martin with a unique insight into helping prevent vision loss due to common conditions including Cataract, Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration and Diabetes.

Martin’s care and IPL treatments for my chronic dry eye has improved my quality of live immensely.
I cannot express my gratitude enough for his diligent care and professionalism. Martin is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about helping his patients, he invests in the latest research and equipment, I am so lucky to have access to his care and the specialized IPL treatment Martin offers.
After suffering for 12 months and seeing multiple ophthalmologists with limited improvement, I was miserable and in pain; Martin’s IPL treatment and advice has improved my dry eye symptoms by at least

Great service and care. I make a 400 km round trip to keep seeing Martin and I would travel further if I had to.

Thank you Martin, if I could give Martin’s Eyecare 10 stars I would! I have suffered from dry eye for quite a long time and it kind of took my normal life away. Martin is so professional, caring and patient. I already felt much better the day after the treatment. I’m so lucky that I have found Martin’s Eyecare.
Thank you again.

God bless you Martin for the miracle journey I'm on since being referred to you by my caring optician at Eastlands.
Martin from day 1 was EXTREMELY thorough with the extensive eye testing he performed on me. I was REALLY impressed with his dedication and commitment to helping me. He even showed me videos of the meibomian eye glands which have been so distressing to me over the past 6 years ; this helped me understand the condition better. He recommended Blephasteam treatment , something I had NEVER been told about before. The results have been incredible giving me hope where I had lost all hope

Martin was recommended to me and I was not disappointed. He was thorough and explained about astigmatism and my shortsightedness. Martin also explained clearly the types of optical lenses available and left the customer to choose. He automatically conducted a health check on my eyes after checking my age group.
Very nice pleasant person as was his staff.
Price wise, Martins Eyecare is reasonable.

Martin really concentrates on the care of his clients, and it is by word of mouth of his satisfied clients that his business progresses. He does free vetting for diseases that show in the eye and keeps photographic records of eyes for successive visits.
