ⓘ How the pricing works (Medicare, rebates, eligibility)

The large figure is the typical gap after the usual Medicare rebate. The full clinic fee is paid upfront, then the eligible rebate is claimed at the front desk. The clinic fee and typical rebate are shown beside each price. Eligibility and the final rebate can vary depending on your Medicare history, so if you would like your exact figure confirmed first, call us on 03 4243 3344. Glasses and contact lenses are quoted separately.
