Lisa J. Keay is an ophthalmologist based in Newtown, NSW. Her practice is located at Level 5/1 King St, Newtown NSW 2042. If you’re dealing with an eye problem that’s affecting your sight, she helps you understand what’s going on and what options you have.
Her work covers common eye conditions as well as longer-term eye health issues. This includes cataracts and cataract removal, plus problems like diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). She also looks after people with glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT), where eye pressure can be a concern over time.
Some visits are about symptoms you notice day to day, like blurred vision from nearsightedness or changes that come with presbyopia as we get older. At times, patients also need care for inflammation-related conditions such as scleritis, and for corneal issues like interstitial keratitis. She also manages eye conditions that can be linked to health changes in the body, including late-onset retinal degeneration.
People come in with different concerns and varying levels of urgency. Over time, this kind of eye care often involves ongoing monitoring, not just one appointment. Lisa works with patients to track changes in vision and eye health, and to plan treatment in a practical way that fits around everyday life.
Her experience is built around diagnosing and treating eye disease, with a focus on protecting vision and reducing risk where possible. In many cases, this means combining careful examinations with treatments such as procedures for cataracts and surgery when it’s needed. One example is vitrectomy, which may be part of treatment for certain retinal problems.
Education and training are aimed at ophthalmology, so the knowledge and skills are centred on eye diagnosis and management. She also stays up to date with current eye care research to support safe, evidence-based treatment choices.
Clinical trials are not listed as a focus in her current service information. Still, the approach in clinic stays grounded in what’s known to work, and the goal is always to make the next step clear.
