Your Vision on the Job, Explained Simply

Understanding safety glasses shouldn’t require a degree. Here is what you need to know in plain
English:

1. Impact-Resistant Materials (Polycarbonate & Trivex)
Standard glasses can shatter if hit. Our safety lenses are made from high-impact materials that are incredibly tough and lightweight. If struck by flying debris, they are designed to protect your eyes, not break into them.

2. The Right Lenses for the Job
Whether you need Single Vision (just for distance or reading), Bifocal (with the visible line) or Multifocal (seamlessly transitioning from reading a tape measure to looking across the site), we tailor the lenses to exactly how you use your eyes at work.

3. Certified Protection (AS/NZS 1337.6)
Every pair we dispense meets strict Australian safety standards. You can confidently walk onto any job site knowing your eyewear is 100% compliant and fully protective.

Yes. If you work outdoors or move between inside and outside, we can customise your safety glasses with permanent tinted sunglass lenses, polarised lenses (ideal for cutting heavy glare and water reflections), or Transitions lenses that automatically darken in sunlight and turn clear indoors.

Curved safety frames with certain lens types and prescriptions can cause dizziness or edge distortion if the optical curve isn’t compensated for, or the frames fits poorly. With over 10 years of dispensing expertise and fitting many safety glasses – we align the lenses properly and can help with frame selection to keep your peripheral vision sharp, natural, and distortion-free—even with higher prescriptions or astigmatism.

We offer dedicated anti-fog coatings and frame designs with built-in ventilation or foam dust gaskets. If you regularly wear dust masks, respirators, or work in humid Queensland conditions, let us know and we’ll match you with lens coatings and frame styles designed to maintain airflow and resist steaming up.

Yes. Because they are custom prescription medical devices, we can claim them on the spot through HICAPS using your private health fund’s optical extras.

The best optometrist! My experience at East Vision was great, they were friendly, got to know me, and you can see their genuine care for their customers. You get a real feeling that nothing is being missed and the optometrist Photi's friendly approach, willingness to explain the process and answer my questions along the way was reassuring. If you are seeking a brilliant local optometrist in the Bulimba / Balmoral / Hawthorne area, I cannot recommend them enough!

I recently had my eyes tested at East Vision Optometry and was extremely impressed by the detail taken to check all aspects of my eyes. They took images of the front and back of my eyes and saved these to use for future benchmarking to see what changes occur over time. They also ran through a detailed explanation of the overall condition of my eyes and my vision. This level of detail and explanation was something I haven’t experienced with optometrists I’ve seen in the past so I will definitely be using East Vision as my optometrist moving forward.

Sandy

Amazing, friendly and high quality service and reasonable prices!

What a great local business to support! Very professional and friendly. Photi was very thorough and informative with the eye examination, fully explaining all the tests and their results. The staff are wonderful front of house, very welcoming and knowledgeable. They have a great range of frames, from classic to funky, to suit all budgets. I would highly recommend.
