About Me
Matthew is a Comprehensive Ophthalmologist who has expertise in the diagnosis and management of Glaucoma. He is passionate about education and awareness of preventable blindness for conditions such as Glaucoma.
Matthew studied medicine at the University of Notre Dame. After completing his intern and residency Matthew was trained in Ophthalmology at the Sydney Eye Hospital.
In his final year he worked in the Sydney Eye Hospital Professorial team, working with patients with a broad range of conditions including advanced uveitis, glaucoma and corneal disease. During this time he developed a special interest in glaucoma.
