My optician could not see me so told me to go to Prince Charles eye Unit. I thought I saw on line that it was a "walk in-walk out" facility but was told on arrival that the wait would be 1-4 hrs - probably nearer 4. One and a half hours before basic triage and another 2.5 before saw a Doctor. Doctor was very efficient and was able to confirm what I had suspected. Left Unit after 5 hours. At least 5 people had been in the unit the same amount of time or longer. Make sure you take a book and something for children to do if you have to take them. Staff very nice but it is a LONG wait
