Eyesight is one of life's most precious gifts, essential for a normal life, and not often appreciated while functioning normally. Optometrists are trained and equipped to provide eye care that helps you to enjoy the best vision that your eyes can provide at any age or in any vocation.

The staff at Martin and Lobb Eyecare have been helping Southlanders to see well since the practice was established in 1987. A strong commitment to providing the best in service and quality care is reflected in our Mission Statement and has maintained the practice as the largest in the province.

The four optometrists are members of the New Zealand Association of Optometrists and The New Zealand Association of Contact Lens Practitioners complying with the continuing education requirements, patient care guidelines and hygiene standards of both bodies. Richard Lobb, Marnie Lankow and Victoria Lun also have a therapeutic endorsment to their scope of practice allowing them to treat inflammatory and infective ocular conditions.

In 2010 we installed a Zeiss Meditec Cirrus OCT instrument to provide advanced imaging capabilities. This intrument provides world leading technology in the detection and management of eye disease including glaucoma and age related macular degeneration.
