Hi, I’m Dr. Richard Barry

As a local specialist ophthalmologist and principal of Blink Eye Clinic in Canberra, I’m committed to delivering world-class eye care, close to home.

I’m a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists and have advanced international training in macular, retinal, and vitreoretinal surgery. I also specialise in complex cataract surgery using premium lenses.

With state-of-the-art technology and a personalised approach, I strive to make each patient feel heard, supported, and confident in their care.

I also proudly teach future ophthalmologists through roles at the University of Sydney and the University of Canberra.

Hi, I’m Dr. Matthew Spargo

I’m a visiting specialist ophthalmologist from Sydney, consulting at Blink Eye Clinic on Mondays and Tuesdays. I trained at the University of Sydney, where I also earned a Master of Public Health.

After completing subspecialty training in paediatric ophthalmology and adult squint surgery in the UK, I developed a deep understanding of complex eye conditions in both children and adults.

I offer cataract surgery, squint correction, and treatments for childhood lid problems and watery eyes.

My goal is to make your journey through eye care as safe, clear, and reassuring as possible — with honest advice and compassionate care every step of the way.

Dr. Matthew Spargo
