Celebrating 40 years together – thank you, Melton!

Dear Melton community,

This year marks a very special milestone for Melton Optical Services as we celebrate 40 incredible years of serving you. We truly couldn’t have reached this point without your unwavering support, so thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Since 1985, our family-owned practice has been dedicated to caring for the eyes of the Melton community. From the very start, our focus has always been on delivering professional and compassionate care with a personal touch that makes our patients feel truly valued.

I’m Mario, and it feels like just yesterday that I opened the doors to Melton Optical on Alexandra Street at the youthful age of 23. Shortly thereafter, my wife Stefani joined our journey, bringing her expertise in optics and her warm, caring demeanour, which has been at the heart of our practice ever since. Together, we’ve been honoured to work alongside our four children, ensuring that our family values remain front and centre.

Over these four decades, it has been our joy to care for three generations of many local families. I fondly recall my very first patient from 1985, who remained with us until his passing – a testament to the lifelong relationships we’ve built together.

As Melton has grown, so have we. In 2001, we moved to our current location at 22 Alexandra Street and expanded our consulting rooms to better serve you.

We’re also proud to have welcomed experienced optometrists Sami Abdulwadud and George Prassinos,both of whom have brought their passion and expertise to our team.

A heartfelt thank you, Melton !

From all of us at Mellon Optical Services, thank you for being a part of our journey over the past 40 years. Whether you’re a cherished long-time patient or have just joined our community, your trust and support mean the world to us.

Here’s to the next chapter! We can’t wait to continue serving you and your family for many more years to come.

Mario Borazio
