About

Loom Optical boutique optometrist store front on Zeally Bay Road, Torquay

A Different Kind of Optical Experience

We founded Loom to reflect what we value: connection, lasting quality, and attention to the details.

At Loom Optical, every eye test is grounded in care and craftsmanship. Sometimes that means helping you find the right lenses and frames, other times it’s the reassurance that your eyes are healthy. And when things are more complex, we take the time to guide you with the same care.

Our Optometrist, Kirsten Bolton

With decades of experience in optometry, Kirsten has built lasting relationships with patients through her thorough and personal approach to eye care.

Now practising at Loom Optical in Torquay, Kirsten continues to care for long-standing patients while welcoming new faces from across the Surf Coast and Geelong.

She believes good eye care begins with listening, taking the time to understand each person's needs and providing thoughtful, individualised advice.

Our Philosophy

The name Loom reflects the bringing together of different threads — people, care, craftsmanship and connection.

We believe in the value of thoughtful design, quality that lasts and the relationships we build within our community.

As an independent practice, we have the freedom to make considered choices about the care we provide and the eyewear we offer, always with the individual in mind.

It all begins with good eye care.

Book your eye test and let us help you find a solution that works for you.
