About our Practice
Dr Graham Fraenkel
Dr Graham Fraenkel is a highly experienced ophthalmologist at Laser Vision SA, dedicated to providing expert surgical and medical eye care with a compassionate, patient-focused approach.
Dr Graham Fraenkel
Ophthalmologist
For over 35 years, I’ve been helping people regain their vision, performing tens of thousands of laser and non-laser procedures. My passion is guiding patients toward visual freedom with the most advanced, proven technologies available. I specialise in SMILE, LASIK, PRK, and laser clear lens extraction.
As a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons since 1998, I have dedicated my career to the science and art of vision correction. Beyond my clinical work, I also train ophthalmologists from across Australia and overseas in the successful use of these advanced technologies. Additionally, my research in refractive and cataract surgery has been published, and I have presented scientific papers at international conferences.
At Laser Vision SA, we understand that while many people could benefit from laser vision correction, uncertainty or fear of the procedure often holds them back. Our goal is to make the process as comfortable and reassuring as possible. Patients frequently tell me that their procedure was much easier than expected and that the results were truly life-changing.
If you’re considering vision correction, I invite you to explore the possibilities. With the right approach, you could experience the freedom of clear vision—without the hassle of glasses or contact lenses.
