Fresh Vision Optometrists
Why choose us?
Why choose us?
Fresh Vision is an independent, family owned Optometry Practice at Everton Park. We’ve made it our mission to delight our patients! We do this by providing exceptional eye care, outstanding products and customer service that does beyond what anyone expects of us. Owned and operated by Brett Jenkinson, Fresh Vision is more than just our name, it is about keeping you seeing as well as possible for as long as possible. Fresh Vision is also about keeping you seeing with the freshest look in glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses. Our Optometrists, Brett Jenkinson and Felicity Sklavos are experienced, thorough and genuinely care about the eye health of their patients. We provide quality eyecare and vision solutions for our patients and cater to all ages. Our Optometrists have obtained additional qualifications in children’s vision and are able to see children of all ages. Our experience in contact lens optometry makes Fresh Vision the north side's go-to optometry practice for all contacts: soft, rigid, reusable, disposable, therapeutic and cosmetic. Our team of trained and qualified dispensers love helping our patients find glasses that they love, that's what sets us apart from other Optometrists.
Why we chose to be independent?
Why we chose to be independent?
Independence in eye care and optical retail means we never have to settle for second-best for our patients. We can access any equipment, any lens, any frame, any sunglass, any contact lens product we need for you. We're not locked into any single supplier, laboratory or contract. Our independence allows us complete freedom of practice, greater integrity and access to a higher quality of care.

We love it here because the people are loyal, supportive, and genuinely interested in each other's well-being.

Brett Jenkinson
Brett completed his Bachelor of Optometry degree at Melbourne University, graduating in 2001. His first job was with Laubman & Pank Optometrists in Kingaroy. While there, he met his wife, Carmen. They were married in 2004 and moved to Hobart for a fresh start in 2006.
In Hobart, Brett became the youngest partner of the largest locally-owned Optometry group, Total Eyecare. He took an active role in the Optometry Association and became Tasmanian President in 2012. Also while in Hobart, Brett became a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry and completed his Graduate Certificate in Ocular Therapeutics, allowing him to prescribe optical medicines. During his 20+ year career, Brett has developed a keen interest in contact lenses, orthokeratology (overnight contact lenses for short-sightedness that allow lens-free daytime vision) and in particular found a challenge in complex cornea and contact lens fitting.
With their two children, Sean and Amelia, Brett and Carmen returned home to Brisbane in June 2017, where they began Fresh Vision. Brett is an active Club Scout Leader which keeps him busy in his spare time. His now teenage children, along with his wife, enjoy camping and spending time with friends.
Felicity Sklavos
Felicity completed her Bachelor of Applied Science (Optometry) degree with First Class Honours from the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in 2006. She obtained her Post-Graduate Diploma in Ocular Therapeutics from QUT in 2010. Most recently, she has completed the Certificate in Children’s Vision through the Australian College of Optometry, Victoria, in 2021. Felicity is therapeutically qualified, allowing her to prescribe ophthalmic medicines, and has a strong interest in paediatric eye care, myopia control and specialty contact lenses. She is an aligned optometrist with the Queensland Children’s Hospital, where she also currently works part time. Felicity’s professional experience ranges from rural independent practice, to metropolitan clinical ophthalmology and private practice. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking and outdoor activities with her young family.
