Value-Driven Care: Accepting Medicare and Health Funds


At Diamond Valley Optical, we proudly accept Medicare and all health funds, ensuring you receive exceptional value for your eye care. We handle both Medicare claims and health fund processing directly on-site. If delving into your coverage details seems daunting, please contact us. Our knowledgeable team excels at navigating both, and we're here to provide the guidance you need.

Understanding Medicare Optical Coverage


Current Medicare cardholders can benefit from the following optical coverage:

Regular Comprehensive Eye Tests

  • Individuals under 65 years: One comprehensive eye test every three years
  • Individuals aged 65+: One comprehensive eye test yearly
  • Contact lens consultations within a specific optical prescription range
  • Eye tests for conditions like glaucoma or macular degeneration

While Medicare is comprehensive, certain tests like those for contact lenses, vision therapy, or dry eye might involve extra expenses.

Health Funds Accepted at Diamond Valley Optical


We prioritise your convenience by accepting all health funds. While routine eye tests might not be fully covered, many private health fund policies offer significant benefits for frames, prescription lenses, and even contact lenses. Depending on the specifics of your policy, you could enjoy coverage of up to 100% for essential elements of eye care. Our dedicated team is readily available to help you comprehend your benefits, ensuring you maximise your coverage. Your eye health matters, and we're here to support you every step of the way.
