Makras Optical exists so you can see the world not as it is, but as you are. Blending style and science, craft and culture, daring design and decades of expertise — for those who see eyewear as an extension of identity.
Michael Makras
With over three decades of experience, therapeutically endorsed optometrist Michael Makras is one of Brisbane’s most respected names in eyewear. Having practiced across the UK and Australia since 1988, Michael founded Optiko and established it as a local institution. Now, returning to James St, he embarks on an exciting new chapter — Makras Optical.
A Scientific Approach Meets an Aesthetic Sensibility
Michael brings a rare blend of clinical expertise and refined aesthetic sensibility. This unique perspective comes to life through a scientific approach to diagnosis, cutting-edge technology, and a passion for personal style. Each frame is personally curated by Michael — selected for the integrity of its design and the craftsmanship behind it.
Uncommon Eyewear Meets Uncompromising Care.
We're committed to uncovering the world’s finest eyewear and delivering uncompromising eye care. Every frame we curate, every diagnosis we make, every interaction you experience — each is guided by expertise, integrity, and a pursuit of excellence.
