EYE EXAMS

Eye Health & Vision Exams in Mississauga

Did you know your eyes and vision should be routinely examined, even in the absence of symptoms? This applies to both children and adults. 20/20 vision does not guarantee healthy eyes. It is recommended adults have their eye exams every 1 to 2 years; infants starting at 6 months, then yearly from age 3; and those 60+ and with diabetes on a yearly basis.

According to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, some 250,000 Canadians have glaucoma. 50% of these individuals are unaware they have the sight-threatening disease. This is one reason routine eye examinations are crucial for the prevention, early detection, and timely treatment of eye disease and disorders such as cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, keratoconus, dry eye, myopia, and macular degeneration.

As we aim to  provide the latest in technology, we have recently invested in OCT and virtual visual field testing.  An OCT offers detailed scans of the different layers of the eye, resulting in earlier diagnosis and therefore treatment of disease. It is important to establish a baseline early in your care.  When booking your next appointment, please specify OCT for ADVANCED EYE EXAMINATION

Children’s Eye Exams

When it comes to children’s eye exams, we modify our approach to the age and competency of the child. No need to worry if your child is fidgety, doesn’t know his/her alphabet or even he or she is not yet verbalizing. Exam results are explained, a what-to-expect as your child grows is discussed and all treatment options are made available.

We offer myopia control therapy in addition to children’s frame fittings and contact lens training. To learn more about children’s vision and its importance to learning, click here
