About of Hannah Forward

Hannah Forward is an Ophthalmologist based at 2 Verdun Street, Nedlands, WA 6009. She looks after eye health for adults and children, with a steady, no-fuss approach. If you’ve been dealing with blurry vision or you’ve been told you’re short-sighted, Hannah helps you understand what’s going on and what your next steps can be.


Nearsightedness (also called myopia) is one of the main things she focuses on. In many cases, it shows up as trouble seeing the distance clearly, like road signs, school boards, or TV from across the room. At times, people also notice headaches or eye strain, especially after long periods of reading, screens, or driving. Hannah takes time to check how your eyes are working, and she talks through options in plain language.


For each visit, the goal is simple: get a clear picture of your vision and your eye health. That usually means checking sight, looking at how the eyes focus, and paying attention to any changes since your last check. Eye care can feel a bit overwhelming when you’re trying to figure out what’s normal and what isn’t. Hannah keeps it calm and explains what the results mean for you.


Over time, she helps patients manage the everyday impact of myopia, including how it can affect schooling, work, sports, and even night driving. For some people, the right glasses or contact lenses make a big difference. For others, there may be extra things to think about as eyes grow or as vision changes. Hannah works with you to match the plan to your life, not just numbers on a chart.


Her education and training are in ophthalmology, the medical field that covers the diagnosis and treatment of eye conditions. While details like exact study years and degree names can vary, the important part is that her background is focused on proper eye assessment and care. You can also expect follow-up advice to be practical and easy to use.


There isn’t specific information listed about research or clinical trials as a main part of the service. Still, eye care doesn’t stand still, and staying current matters. Hannah keeps up with the usual updates in eye health so her care fits with what’s used in clinics today.


If you’re in Nedlands or nearby and you want a clear plan for myopia and general eye checks, Hannah Forward’s clinic is a good place to start.
