Specialist Eye Surgeons in Hamilton

Providing specialist eye care for Hamilton and the wider Waikato region, with short-notice appointments available.

Anglesea Precinct, Gate 2, 13 Thackeray Street, Hamilton Central
Expert Eye Care, Close to Home

Pukekohe is the main service centre for the Franklin district, sitting between Auckland's southern suburbs and the northern Waikato. For patients in this part of the country, accessing specialist eye care has historically meant a significant drive — either into Auckland or down to Hamilton. Our Pukekohe clinic changes that. Operating from Franklin Day Surgery on Manukau Road, we bring experienced specialist surgeons and a comprehensive range of eye care services directly to the Franklin community.

Specialist Services Available

Our Pukekohe clinic provides access to a full range of specialist eye care services at Franklin Day Surgery. Patients can access consultations, diagnostic assessments and a broad spectrum of surgical treatments locally, supported by surgeons who also operate across our Waikato network. The clinic is well-suited for patients across the Franklin district who prefer to keep their care local and avoid longer travel times to city-based facilities.

Serving Pukekohe and Surrounding Areas

We see patients from Pukekohe, Waiuku, Tuakau, Pokeno, Bombay, Patumahoe and the wider Franklin district, as well as patients from southern Auckland suburbs who find Pukekohe more convenient than travelling into the city. The Franklin district has a growing population and a strong rural community, and our clinic is structured to serve both — with straightforward appointment access and a team that takes the time to explain options clearly.

Why Patients Choose Eye Surgeons

Patients choose Eye Surgeons for our experienced specialists, modern approach to treatment, and calm, patient-focused care. We take time to explain options clearly, so every patient feels informed and supported.
