Centre for Eye Health | Reducing preventable blindness in the community

Welcome to the

Centre for
Eye Health

The Centre for Eye Health (CFEH) is now permanently closed.

Patient Care and Records

All patients previously seen at CFEH have now been discharged to their community optometrist or an alternative pathway for ongoing care.

  • Copies of patients most recent reports and clinical images have been sent to their original referring optometrist
  • Where patients have an active My Health Record, reports have also been uploaded to this platform.

Accessing Your Records

If you would like to obtain a copy of your clinical records, please:

  • Access your information through My Health Record, or
  • Contact your referring community optometrist

If neither of these are possible, please email: stleonards@guidedogs.com.au

Learning Portal

The highly successful CFEH Education program will be finishing as of 1st June 2026 due to the impending closure of CFEH. Members need to download their CPD Learning Log from the portal before the website is closed on the 31st May 2026.

About CFEH

Since opening in 2009, thanks to significant funding from Guide Dogs NSW/ACT, CFEH worked to reduce preventable blindness in the community, helping people avoid the financial, psychological and practical impacts of vision loss.

For more than 16 years, we provided:

  • Advanced eye imaging and diagnostic services
  • Expert care from highly experienced optometrists
  • Access to ophthalmology consultation when needed
  • All services at no cost to patients

Our Legacy

CFEH leaves behind a legacy of innovation, impact and leadership in eye care.

Our model demonstrated that collaborative, intermediate-level care can:

  • Prevent vision loss
  • Improve patient outcomes
  • Reduce pressure on the health system

The future of eye care depends on continued support and investment in collaborative care models.

Thank You

We thank our patients, partners and community for your trust and support over the past 16 years.
