- Pediatric Eye Exams
Early identification of a child’s vision problem is crucial. That’s why the Canadian Association of Optometrists recommend that a child’s first eye exam should be at 6 months of age. However, it’s never too late to have your first exam.
- Eye See…Eye Learn
Eye See…Eye Learn ® is a special vision program funded by Alberta Education, partnered with the Alberta Association of Optometrists, to ensure that vision and/or ocular health problems do not interfere with your child’s learning potential. - Treatment of Eye Diseases
Did you know that your optometrist can treat eye disease, such as red pink and sore eyes, and can manage chronic eye conditions, including problems related to diabetes?
- Eye Emergencies
Eye injuries and emergencies range from the very minor such as getting soap in your eye, to the catastrophic such as chemical exposures, lacerations, or sudden loss of vision, which could result in permanent loss of vision. Find out when to seek immediate medical care.
