About of Alice Pebay

Alice Pebay is an Ophthalmologist based in East Melbourne, VIC. Her practice address is 32 Gisborne Street, East Melbourne, VIC 3002, Australia. She works with people who need clear answers about eye problems and vision changes, especially when symptoms can be worrying or hard to explain.


In many cases, patients come in with ongoing eye conditions like age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). This can affect central vision and make day-to-day tasks like reading or seeing faces more difficult. Alice also looks after people with glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT), where eye pressure can be an issue and regular checks matter.


She helps manage a range of retinal and optic nerve conditions too. That includes late-onset retinal degeneration, optic nerve atrophy, ocular hypertension related concerns, and Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). At times, people also have pigment-dispersion syndrome, Friedreich ataxia related eye issues, or other inherited conditions that can involve vision over time.


Eye inflammation and infection can be part of the picture as well. For example, ocular toxoplasmosis may cause eye pain, redness, or blurry vision, and needs careful assessment. There can also be growths or cysts, such as a ganglion cyst, which may need advice on monitoring or treatment options. Alice also supports people who have had eye trauma or have conditions linked to the brain and nervous system, including dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease), and different forms of ataxia.


When surgery is on the table, she can be involved in planning around procedures like vitrectomy. This is used in specific eye problems, where removing or working on the gel inside the eye may help with recovery and vision outcomes. Overall, Alice focuses on practical eye care, clear next steps, and making sure people understand what is happening with their eyes.
