Primary Eye Care (PEC) is a patient-centred eye healthcare service provided by registered optometrists as the first point of contact within the eye care system in Malaysia, following standards set by the Majlis Optik Malaysia (MOC) and Ministry of Health Malaysia.
PEC includes comprehensive eye examinations, vision assessments, contact lens care, myopia management, ocular health evaluation, patient education, and early detection of eye and systemic diseases such as glaucoma, cataract, diabetic retinopathy, and hypertension.
The goal of Primary Eye Care is to provide safe, ethical, evidence-based eye care that protects vision, promotes eye health, prevents avoidable blindness, and improves quality of life. Through professional practice, continuous development, and collaborative care, optometrists play a vital role in strengthening accessible and sustainable eye healthcare services in Malaysia.
Ethical & Transparent Recommendations
Modern consumers are increasingly sensitive to overselling and expect eye care professionals to provide recommendations that are honest, transparent, and centred on their individual needs. This includes offering clear explanations of available treatment options, transparent pricing, and appropriate spectacle lenses or contact lens recommendations based on each patient’s visual requirements and lifestyle, without unnecessary upselling. By prioritising ethical practice and patient interests, optometry practices can build trust and credibility, which are essential for long-term patient satisfaction and retention.

Early Detection & Preventive Eye Care
Today, patients expect optometrists to do more than prescribe spectacles. They also expect professional eye care that helps detect eye diseases at an early stage and supports long-term vision health. A PEC-compliant practice is expected to provide comprehensive services, including eye disease screening, diabetic eye monitoring, myopia progression management, dry eye management, vision therapy or binocular vision care, as well as clear referral pathways to ophthalmologists when specialist care is required. As awareness of eye health continues to grow, consumers increasingly value practices that emphasize prevention and long-term eye care.
Proper Documentation & Follow-Up Care
Patients expect continuity of care, especially in Primary Eye Care settings. This includes:
