Sydney Hospital and Sydney Eye Hospital

Welcome

Sydney Hospital and Sydney Eye Hospital is Australia's oldest hospital and dates from the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788.

Three sandstone buildings and two gatehouses along Macquarie Street were the result of an architectural competition held in 1880 and won by Thomas Rowe (1829-1899).

The Sydney Eye Hospital is now onsite, and recent works include the construction of an eight level car park, ground floor emergency with eye hospital outpatients, two levels of wards and an operating theatre on the top floor.

This historic facility has been located in Macquarie Street since 1816, and is steeped in history with a legacy of nursing and medical firsts to its credit.

Today, Sydney Hospital and Sydney Eye Hospitals' modern facilities and professional staff provide a strong blend of general and specialist medical services for the public.
