Dry Eye Specialists in Melbourne
Dry eye can affect how you see and how you feel. At The Eye Lab, we use advanced, non-invasive treatments to bring real relief. Our Specialist team works closely with you to create a personalised plan that supports lasting eye comfort.
Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough quality tears or when tears evaporate too quickly. This can cause discomfort, blurred vision, and sensitivity to light.
At The Eye Lab, we offer a personalised approach to dry eye treatment. Using advanced diagnostic imaging, we assess the root cause of your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate therapy.
Our treatments are designed to improve tear quality, reduce inflammation, and support long-term eye health. Whether caused by environmental factors, screen use, or meibomian gland dysfunction, we’re here to help restore comfort with gentle, effective care.

Victor and the team at The Eye Lab are absolutely incredible. Very attentive to all my needs and provided different options until I found the perfect pair if glasses as well as sorting out my prescription for them at the same time. Highly recommend. Wouldn’t go anywhere else for my eye needs.
The only shop I purchase my glasses from. The owners are friendly, and very knowledgeable. They were more than happy to help my husband and I in purchasing the right prescription glasses and sunglasses! Being from Sydney was no issue for them at all. From the consultation, to picking out the right frames to shipping them to Sydney, I cannot thank The Eye Lab enough!
Amazing optometrists and customer service! Couldn’t recommend them any more to anyone needing eye care. The eye lab also has such a large range of quality branded frames. I found a pair of frames that actually suited me, and now have become someone that wears glasses every day.

I brought my mum in store to get her eyes tested with Victor, customer service was genuine and friendly. Victor helped my mum by recommending frames and choose glasses that really flatter her face. I liked that all the frames available are stylish and on trend usually in other stores there is a limit to the designer section which makes it hard to find something flattering. Mum who frequently gets tested said she’s never had such a thorough eye test she felt cared for. Would recommend this optometrist to everyone.
My experience with the eye lab has been nothing but short of amazing from start to finish. I purchased two designer pairs of optical glasses at a great price. I always get stopped and asked where I’ve purchased my glasses from and I happily and highly recommend the Eye Lab. Emma was great to deal with and I found her to be super helpful.
They have an extensive range of up to date products that not every other optical store has, so I highly recommend you check these guys out and support this wonderful family business and get yourself a unique pair of stunning specs.
The staff service is excellent as well.Thanks a lot Emma for helping me to choice my suitable glasses frame that suits my face. The optometrist Claudette Zakour-Yacoub was very professional and provide the best advices.
Recommend strongly for all my family, friends and others.

The Eye Lab is my go to for all my glasses and sunglasses! All of the staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable about all of their products. Victor the optometrist did my eye test and answered all the questions I had about transitioning from glasses to lenses and made my experience really easy. Emma in the front helped me find new prescription sunglasses to suit for driving/everyday wear, helping me find a pair that really suited my style and face shape! If I could give them more than 5 stars I definitely would!
After having my lenses carelessly prescribed for me THREE times by other practitioners whereby they consistently failed to get it right and rushed my eye examinations leaving me with bad migraines as a result of the lenses they gave me, the Eye Lab perfected my prescription with one go. Eye Lab was highly recommended to me by another satisfied customer of theirs so I travelled across town to see Vic at the Eye Lab in hope for a solution to what I was dealing with. He was professional, diligent and outstanding in his conduct and took the time to ensure everything was done correctly for me, and Emma was also very diligent and helpful. They also have a very attractive range of eyewear. I would definitely recommend this business. Well done guys.

The best in the west, excellent service, excellent products, excellent eye test. I can see! I feel new all thanks to this shop and the owner, taking my family there very highly recommended. Love the new frame excellent quality of the frame and the lens so so happy thank you so much.
Always had an issue finding the right pair of glasses that complimented my wide head shape, so put off buying a pair for years. Always went to mainstream stores,but never ended up with a pair of glasses I enjoyed wearing. Was referred to the Eye lab by a colleague. Finally have a pair of glasses that compliment my face, and I enjoy wearing!
I had the best experience at The Eye lab. I had never had my eyes tested before and the team helped me find the perfect pair of glasses and were nothing short of accomodating and professional. I am particularly grateful that they were able to post my new glasses so quickly given that I lived quite far. Thanks!
FAQs About Dry Eye Treatment
How long do results last?
We begin with a comprehensive eye examination, including tear film analysis and gland imaging, to tailor a treatment plan specific to your symptoms and eye health.
Will I need more than one treatment session?
Some patients feel relief after a single visit, but others benefit from a series of treatments. We’ll discuss your ongoing care plan after the initial assessment.
Do I still need to use eye drops after treatment?
Possibly. While in-clinic treatments provide lasting relief, we may recommend specific drops or home care routines to support long-term comfort and stability.
What are the risks or side effects of dry eye treatment?
Side effects are rare and usually mild. Some patients may experience slight redness or sensitivity, which typically resolves within a few hours.
Do I need a referral to book a dry eye consultation?
No referral is needed. You can book directly with our team for a full dry eye assessment and treatment plan
