Why choose us?
At Fitzgerald Optometry, we utilise the very latest in technology to provide personalised eye care with the same optometrist over time so that any changes in your vision can be detected. Eyewear solutions that leave you feeling great are just as important to us. We believe in the relationships we have built with our patients and often care for three generations from one family. We are centrally located in Williamstown with convenient parking. Our stylish practice has proudly won a Melbourne Designs Award for its interior design.
Why we chose to be independent?
Why we chose to be independent?
We love having the freedom to practice optometry in a way that allows us to provide exceptional eyecare to our patients. It also means we can invest in the latest technology and equipment to provide you with a sophisticated eye exam and tailored vision solution including the best quality lenses and frames for your needs.
What we love about Williamstown?
What we love about Williamstown?
We're lucky to be located in such a beautiful bayside suburb. Being surrounded by water on three sides gives Williamstown a unique village atmosphere despite being close to the heart of Melbourrne. What we like most about the village is the real sense of community.

My passion for ‘eyes’ began after completing my orthoptic degree and working with an Ophthalmologist for a few years. I was encouraged to go back to university and study optometry, and I am so glad I did. I love being able to make a difference in my patients' lives, whether that be improving their vision with the correction or diagnosing, treating, and managing their eye disease.
Outside of work, I enjoy reading and travelling; and I was fortunate to travel to Fiji in 2017 to volunteer in an optometry screening program in an orphanage in Nadi.

Unfortunately my father lost sight in one eye as a young adult. The importance of good eye care was very evident to me and I would often accompany my father to his examinations. Optometry was a career where I could combine my love of science and technology as well as making a real difference to people's lives in helping to maintain their vision for life. When I'm not practicing I enjoy spending time with my family. I particularly love bicycle touring because of the challenge and freedom it provides. I was lucky to recently ride from Munich to Paris with just my bike and loaded panniers.

I have worked at Optometry practices around Melbourne, country Victoria and New Zealand and have a keen interest in children's vision. I am also a member of the ACBO (Australian College of Behavioural Optometrists). I spent two years working as a volunteer in an eye hospital in Asmara, Eritrea. I live locally to the practice with my husband and two children and enjoy writing children's novels and cycling to work.
Giving back
We believe it is very important to contribute to and give back to the community. We regularly participate in the fundraising of our local schools, churches and sporting clubs. Being raised in the Western suburbs we have nominated Western Chances as our major sponsor. This organisation helps young people in the West to achieve their full potential.
