Centre for Eye Health (CFEH or the Centre) is committed to safeguarding the privacy of our patients. The Centres Privacy Policy can be found here.

Any information that we gather from your forms or appointment that can be associated with you, will remain confidential and will not be disclosed except to your referring practitioner or as per below.

For some appointment types sending a copy of the results and images obtained from your assessment at the Centre to your General Practitioner (GP/Family Doctor) is in the best interests of your health care.

If you permit CFEH to send a copy to your GP if appropriate, please provide their details below.

Research and teaching

In addition to providing access to advanced eye imaging and assessment services, Centre for Eye Health is a valuable resource for research and teaching.

The information we gather from our clients will enable researchers from various disciplines to investigate ocular conditions and develop management strategies for improved patient management. It will also enable us to make important comparisons and evaluations of various pieces of advanced eye imaging equipment, develop evidence-based clinical protocols for a range of eye conditions and ensure that future and current eye-care practitioners have access to up-to-date training.

Before we can use your information for research or teaching purposes, we need your permission.

Confidentiality and Disclosure of Information. Any information that we gather from your appointment at CFEH, that can be identified with you, will remain confidential and will not be disclosed, except as required by law, to yourself or to your consulting practitioner when requested. If you give us your permission by signing this document, we plan to use the information we have collected on you in research activities and to develop teaching materials in the area of eye health.
Note: In any research or teaching material, information will be presented in such a way that you cannot be identified.

Communication of Findings. CFEH will communicate any significant research findings via the Centre’s website, conference presentations and peer reviewed scientific publications.
