Alison Swan is an optometrist based in Wollongong, working from 2-4 Kenny Street, Wollongong NSW 2500. If you need an eye check, new glasses, or help with contact lenses, she looks after patients in a steady, practical way. Eye care can feel a bit confusing, so the aim is to keep things clear and make sure you understand what’s going on.
In many cases, Alison starts with a full eye exam to check how your eyes are working. This can cover vision changes, general eye health, and any comfort issues you might be noticing. If you’re due for an update, or if something just feels a bit off, an eye test is often the first step. From there, she helps organise the right plan for your situation.
Glasses are a big part of what she does. That includes writing prescriptions for glasses that fit your needs, and guiding you through the usual questions about lens options and what to expect. For some people, contact lenses feel more comfortable or suit their lifestyle better. Alison can help with contact lens fitting, so you’re not left guessing about what will work for your eyes.
She also treats common eye infections. This might include things like redness, irritation, or discharge, where early attention matters. At times, symptoms can look similar across different problems, so getting the right assessment is important. The goal is to get you feeling better and back to normal as soon as possible, with advice on what to watch for at home.
Over time, Alison has gained a solid feel for the day-to-day side of eye care, from routine check-ups to more urgent concerns. She is trained in optometry and uses that foundation to support good eye health. At the moment, there’s no specific research or clinical trial information shown in the public details for this practice.
