Maria Kolic is an Ophthalmologist based at 32 Gisborne Street, East Melbourne, VIC 3002, Australia. She helps people with eye problems that can affect sight day to day, and also conditions that need careful long-term eye care.
Her clinic work often involves looking after changes in the retina. This includes issues like retinitis pigmentosa and late-onset retinal degeneration, as well as age-related macular degeneration. She also sees patients with diabetic eye conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular oedema, where early check-ups can make a real difference to how things progress.
Glaucoma and eye pressure problems are also part of her regular case load. That can include glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT). For many people, symptoms can be slow or not very noticeable at first, so regular eye exams and good monitoring matter.
At times, she may also support patients dealing with pigment-related eye conditions, including pigment-dispersion syndrome. With these conditions, it’s not just about treating one bad day. It’s more about keeping an eye on the bigger picture, and adjusting care when the eye health changes.
Maria focuses on practical, patient-friendly care. She takes time to explain what she’s seeing and why certain follow-up visits are important. Many people come in feeling worried, especially when vision has started to blur, or when they’ve been told they have a long-term condition. In many cases, calm and clear guidance helps people feel more in control.
She has ophthalmology training, with ongoing clinical experience in medical eye care. The aim is to support good vision and eye health, using the right tests and treatment plans for each situation.
For most eye conditions she treats, follow-up matters. Over time, eyes can change, and the care plan may need fine-tuning. Maria works with patients to keep appointments on track, so issues are found early and managed properly.
