Timing, fees and health funds
New fittings and complex prescriptions may take longer than routine checks, so timing and fees are confirmed when booking. Medicare and health-fund treatment vary; eligible optical extras may apply to some lens purchases.
Suitability limitations
Dryness, allergy, corneal disease, unsafe handling or poor hygiene can limit lens wear. Pain, marked redness, light sensitivity or sudden blur while wearing lenses requires prompt removal and urgent professional advice.

Common questions
Can I order contact lenses from iFocus Optometrists?
Yes. You can order selected contact lenses online and the Ashfield team reviews the prescription and fitting details before fulfilment.
Do I need a contact lens check?
A contact lens check is recommended if your prescription has changed, your lenses feel uncomfortable or your contact lens prescription is out of date.
