You support your patients. We support you.
You’ve mastered the science of optometry. We’ll support you with the science of business.Running a business on your own can be isolating. While you’re there supporting your patients, who’s there supporting you? We offer you a network with a comprehensive skill base, so you never feel like you’re going it alone. ProVision lets you play to your strengths as an Optometrist while we play to ours – providing you with the tools and expertise to grow your business.
Let’s start with some important facts
Why trust ProVision?ProVision is wholly owned by Optometry Australia
and autonomously governed by a Board of Directors consisting of six passionately independent Optometrists,
representing almost 100 years of combined ProVision membership. Our services and advice have been tried and tested in market, and are supported by evidence-
based outcomes. Fittingly, 100% of our income is reinvested into the business to benefit all Members.
What does ProVision offer you and your business?
We know that our comprehensive level of business support for independent
Optometrists is unparalleled in Australia. Best in market optical supplier partner
pricing is just the beginning. With a team of 30, you can access expertise across
every business discipline as you require. This means you can focus on your area of expertise – delivering best in class
eyecare to your local community.
Can you connect with other ProVision Members?
Our Members tell us that the ability to connect with other like-minded Optometrists
and practice teams is of fundamental value to them. The alternative is potential
isolation. We facilitate regular Member interaction through many forums, giving
you the chance to talk and exchange ideas, as well as have some fun. With ProVision,
you’re never alone - you are a part of something much bigger.
Will you lose your independence and local brand?
Categorically, no. We know that you chose independence for a reason. To that end, everything we do is geared towards
strengthening your own brand and leveraging your independence as a valuable
point of difference. With ProVision, you choose the resources that are important to you at any point in time and we’ll support you in getting the right things actioned.
Why does ProVision exist?For almost 30 years, ProVision’s charter has been to support the future of independent optometry.
Our vision is to be the leading champions of innovative independent Optometrists in Australia.
We exist to grow our Member practices by providing them with the business services and products
needed to keep them competitive and profitable.

We soon found out, after opening our business, that ProVision has invaluable experience across every facet of running a successful practice. The most important resource is our Business Coach, Kate. We regard Kate as an integral part of our team. Her approach is to help us learn and she keeps us on-track and organised. She has assisted us with staff management, marketing, financial planning and much more and we’ve learnt that there are no stupid questions. ProVision has been our guardian angel!
