Sandra E. Staffieri is an Ophthalmologist based in East Melbourne, VIC, at 32 Gisborne Street, East Melbourne, VIC 3002, Australia. She focuses on eye health across a wide range of ages, from childhood eye conditions to ongoing vision problems in adults.
Her work covers conditions that affect different parts of the eye. This can include cataracts and congenital cataract in babies and kids, glaucoma and ocular hypertension, and issues with the optic nerve such as optic nerve atrophy and Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). She also looks after retina-related problems like retinal detachment, pigment-dispersion syndrome, and macular corneal dystrophy type 1.
There’s also a focus on eye alignment and movement. Strabismus, esotropia, Brown syndrome, and facial paralysis-related eye changes are all part of the kind of care this practice deals with. At times, patients come with complex needs linked to underlying conditions too, including Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and Marfan syndrome. Some cases involve abnormal eye development like microphthalmia.
She also treats conditions linked to the brain and vision pathway. Gliomatosis cerebri and optic nerve-related problems can be part of the picture, where careful eye checks are important for day-to-day vision and long-term planning. Retinoblastoma is also listed among the conditions she looks after, which means she can be involved in care that needs close coordination and clear follow-up.
Experience details and education history are not provided here. Research and clinical trial involvement also isn’t listed. What is clear from the practice information is that the clinic takes on both front-of-eye and deeper eye conditions, and supports patients with a mix of common and more complex diagnoses.
