Your Ocular Health is Important to Us

Eye Exams Could Lead to Healthy Vision!

Eye Exams are recommended at least once every two years.  Your child should have their first eye exam around 6 to 9 months of age as recommended by the Canadian Association of Optometrists. The first step towards great health for your child is to book an eye exam. 

Motor Vehicle, Police Academy, and Occupational Eye Exams

Often special tests are done for specific jobs and tasks and we will add those to the routine exam.  Don’t forget to bring your forms and tell us your special needs when you book your appointment as we may have to spend a little more time with you.

Whether you have an eye infection or a minor injury, give us a call and we will do everything possible to see you quickly or if necessary redirect you to the most appropriate eye care facility.

Digital Fundus Imaging

Fundus photography is used to inspect anomalies that affect the eye, and to monitor their progression
