What's included in your eye exam?

Comprehensive Eye Exams

Determine your eyewear prescription and evaluate your eyes for their overall health.

  • Updated glasses prescription
  • Complete eye health examination including dilation
  • Visual field testing
  • Retinal photographs
  • Glaucoma check/risk assessment
  • Ocular Coherence Tomography, the latest advancement in retinal imaging, comparable to an ultrasound
  • Education on the health of your eyes

As necessary or by request:

  • Colour vision test
  • Scans and measurements of the cornea
  • Imaging of the outer surfaces of the eyes
  • Referrals to ophthalmologists for cataract surgery and other eye health concerns
  • Reports and letters for your employer, school, insurance company, and anyone else who requires information on your ocular health.

Pediatric Eye Exams

The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends that children should have their eyes checked by an optometrist at age 6 months, again at 2 years, before they start school, and yearly once they are in school.
If your child has a valid B.C. CareCard, this will cover their appointment fees until their nineteenth birthday. We encourage you to bring your little ones in as many times per year as necessary.

 

Contacts Lens Examination

Our optometrists will help you choose the best type of contact lens for your eyes, and ensure they fit well and provide optimal vision.
All contact lens appointments include one on one time with an optical dispenser to learn (or refresh yourself!) on how to safely insert, remove, and store your contact lenses.

 

Emergency Appointments

We keep appointments available for ocular emergencies, such as:

  • Sudden vision Loss
  • Double vision
  • Onset of flashing lights and floaters
  • Foreign body (dirt, debris, or other materials in eye).
  • Red or painful eyes
  • Eye infections
  • Inflammation of the eyes or eyelids
  • Injury to eye
  • Scratched eye
  • Uncomfortable or itchy eyes
