About US
Providing local communities with quality products and ongoing eyecare
Gareth Edwards Optometrist began in 2006 as one practice in Toowoomba and has since expanded to include two other locations, Millmerran and Oakey
Our belief is simple - early detection, quality products and giving back to the community wherever possible. We strive to give our customers the best possible care and exactly what they need to ensure their eye health is performing its best.
Our aim is to make sure you leave our practice feeling confident in your eyesight’s performance and health. We co-manage your eye health through our comprehensive detection and treatment processes.
The Gareth Edwards Difference
Because we are independently owned, we aren’t bound by sales targets - meaning we only recommend products and services that will benefit you.
We listen and take the time to assess each patient, their day-to-day tasks and their needs to ensure we are prescribing you exactly what you need.
Meet Our Team
Dr Gareth Edwards
Optometrist
Gareth opened his first practice in the heart of Toowoomba City in 2006 after several years of locum, working in practices throughout Queensland and New South Wales. He completed his Bachelor of Applied Science (Optometry) in 2000 and a Graduate Certificate in Ocular Therapeutics.
Providing patients with the care and products they need as well as sound advice is more than enough.
Gareth involves himself in a number of community support projects and is an active committee member for the 2nd Toowoomba Scouts. In his downtime, Gareth enjoys kayaking and camping with his family.
Dr Katalin Kruchio
Optometrist
Katalin graduated from QUT in 2000 then proceeded to work in rural communities in NSW for 7 years. Relocating to Toowoomba to be closer to family, Katalin has worked for a number of Optometry practices and has settled in with the team at Gareth Edwards Optometrist.
She enjoys living and working in the Toowoomba region due to its relaxing lifestyle, which suits her crafting hobbies. In her spare time, Katalin can also be found reading or spending time with her husband, children and cat.
