The current Doncaster Eye Centre was established by Drs Troy Lim Joon, Alex Poon and Maged Atalla in 1999. The building is an architect designed, purpose-built ophthalmology clinic, which was completed in 2004. A new on-site car park was built towards the end of 2016. We now have ample parking for our staff and patients.

The practice has since expanded and we now have eleven ophthalmologists all with varying expertise, providing exemplary eye care for our patients.

Doncaster Eye Centre has recently amalgamated with Hawthorn Eye Clinic (HEC). Dr Mark Ellis has been joined by Drs Poon, Lim-Joon, Au, Chong, Edwards, Fan-Gaskin, Buck and Lim in providing ophthalmology services at HEC. HEC is located at 829 Glenferrie Road KEW and their phone number is (03) 9819 2882. Visit their website here.

The doctors and staff at Doncaster Eye Centre are committed to excellence and we strive to provide our patients with the highest possible ophthalmic care. We regularly attend conferences and clinical meetings to ensure that the most up-to-date and effective investigations and treatments are available to our patients.

Besides English, we have doctors and staff members who can speak Cantonese, Mandarin, Italian, Arabic and Spanish. 

In continual response to the Covid-19 situation, we wish to reassure you that we are following the recommendations of the Department of Health and Human Services, and of our professional and governing bodies, in doing our part with preventing the spread of Covid-19.

We no longer require patients to wear disposable face-masks. However, if you feel unwell or you’re experiencing any cold/flu symptoms, please call us on (03) 8850 4000 to reschedule. If you are a close-contact of a Covid positive person, please reschedule your appointment if it is not of an urgent nature. Telehealth consultations are still available to patients as required.

To minimise COVID spread and for the comfort of everyone in our waiting area, we ask that you continue to keep the number of carers attending with you to a minimum. 

The health and well-being of patients and staff members remain our absolute priority. Thank you for your kind cooperation.
