Services
Adult eye exams
Our comprehensive adult eye exams include visual acuity testing, refraction assessment, and dilated fundus examination. We utilize digital retinal imaging and OCT scans to detect early signs of ocular disease. Patients receive personalized recommendations for corrective lenses and eye health maintenance.
Retinal imaging
Advanced retinal imaging technology captures detailed cross-sectional views of ocular structures. This non-invasive diagnostic tool detects subtle changes in retinal layers, enabling early intervention for conditions like macular degeneration and glaucoma. Results are analyzed during your appointment for immediate clinical decisions.
Children's eye exams
Specialized pediatric assessments evaluate visual development through age-appropriate techniques. Our optometrists use shape identification and objective testing methods to determine visual acuity and detect potential vision problems in infants, toddlers, and school-age children without requiring alphabet recognition.
Diabetic eye exams
Annual diabetic eye exams include comprehensive evaluation of retinal health using specialized imaging technology. We monitor for diabetic retinopathy indicators and provide ongoing management recommendations. These OHIP-covered examinations help prevent vision loss through early detection of diabetes-related ocular changes.
Dry eye treatment
Our dry eye management program includes tear film analysis and meibomian gland assessment. We offer customized treatment plans incorporating artificial tears, prescription medications, and in-office procedures to improve ocular surface health and alleviate discomfort from chronic dryness.

Report
I've been going here for years now and I'll never go anywhere else. The secretaries are very kind and helpful, even helping me fill out my prescription information online so that I could purchase glasses at a different vendor because I personally can't afford the glasses they sell (average price for a pair of glasses is around $200 which isn't bad just not for me), and they did so in a way that made me feel not judged for my budget. The doctor is a complete sweetheart and always goes out of her way to make me feel comfortable and ease my neurotic mind. Whenever I go in for my eye exams I'm always

Thank you for the your apology. You Dr Chan, did nothing wrong, you did a fantastic job ! It is the receptionist that I have a problem with. I was not offered a redo. I waited 15 minutes for her to take out the mistake and put the old lens back in. There was no customer service given to me.

Dr. Chan was very patient and super friendly. She took time to answer my questions and I never felt rushed during the visit. The secretary was wonderful too - polite and professional. Very happy about my new contact lens.

Very disappointing. Very rude secretary. Dr Chan has lost 3 patients. Making an appointment is a joke, will still have to wait a long time. If youre late, theyll canceled your appointment immediately. Find somewhere better!!!
