Our Services

At Loom Optical, we provide thoughtful, clinically precise eye care tailored to your needs. Led by experienced optometrist Kirsten Bolton, our optometry practice in Torquay offers comprehensive services that combine the latest optical technology with warm, individualised attention.

Whether you're due for a routine eye exam or exploring advanced lens solutions, our approach is grounded in clarity, care, and long-term vision health.

Optometrist Kirsten Bolton is qualified to conduct vision assessments for aviation medical certification in accordance with CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) requirements.

We offer eye examinations for both Class 1 and Class 2 medicals, providing accurate, compliant testing in a calm and professional setting for pilots and aviation personnel.

We integrate leading-edge diagnostic technology, including high-resolution retinal and OCT scans. This allows early diagnosis of macular degeneration, glaucoma, and retinal conditions.

We take the time to explain your results clearly and answer any questions, so you feel confident and informed every step of the way. We also offer dry eye management and follow-up care.

We’re proud to partner with CR Labs, Australia’s leading independent lens manufacturer. Their innovation in optical technology includes Australia’s first biomass lens material — a sustainable option available in single vision, multifocal, and prescription sunglasses.

Choosing sustainable lenses in Australia means making a more environmentally conscious choice without compromising clarity or design.

From daily disposables to rigid lenses and orthokeratology (Ortho-K) contact lenses we provide personalised contact lens fittings to suit your lifestyle and prescription.

Our fittings include in-depth measurements, trial lenses, and ongoing support to ensure comfort and clarity — including for children and first-time wearers.

While Loom Optical is generally a private billing practice — allowing us to deliver uncompromised care — we bulk bill pensioners, Health Care Card holders, and children.

Medicare rebates are processed on-site, and we accept all health funds with instant claiming.

We believe high-quality vision care should remain accessible to those who need it most.
