Are you looking for a local Optometrist (eye doctor)?
Optometry is a regulated profession — doctors must have specific education and be licensed before they can practise in Canada. An Optician can provide you with new glasses, but you need a licensed Optometrist to test your eyes first.
You may qualify for coverage under provincial health programs. Please have your health insurance information ready and call a local Optometrist to see if you qualify.
Other services commonly provided by Optometrists include:
- Full eye health exams, which may reveal conditions such as presbyopia, myopia, astigmatism, strabismus, glaucoma, and conjunctivitis.
- Refractions to determine your glasses prescription.
- Contact lens dispensing.
- Emergency exams (such as foreign objects in the eye).
- Specialty eye exams for certain professions (such as police, firefighter, etc.).
