Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams assess vision quality and eye health using advanced diagnostic technology. We check for common eye diseases, evaluate binocular vision coordination, and determine corrective lens prescriptions. The exams include retinal photography and ocular coherence tomography for detailed health assessments, ensuring early detection of potential vision problems while maintaining patient comfort throughout the process.
Pediatric Eye Exams
Specialized eye exams for children focus on early detection of vision problems that could affect development. Our optometrists use age-appropriate testing methods to assess visual acuity, eye alignment, and overall eye health. These exams are crucial for identifying issues that might impact learning and developmental milestones, ensuring children maintain optimal vision for growth and education.
Ocular Disease Management
We provide comprehensive management for ocular diseases including glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Our approach combines regular monitoring with personalized treatment plans using the latest diagnostic tools. The service includes progression tracking, medication management, and patient education about disease prevention and lifestyle modifications to preserve vision and eye health over time.
Contact Lenses
Our contact lens service includes fittings, follow-up evaluations, and specialized solutions for challenging cases. We offer options for dry eyes, astigmatism, and multifocal needs with both daily and monthly wear choices. The service includes proper insertion/removal training and ongoing care guidance to ensure comfort, visual clarity, and eye health maintenance for all contact lens users.

Report
Went here for an eye exam, very cramped quarters, got a prescription for glasses, had headaches on and off for a month, got another prescription, had more headaches off and on for a month. Back to wearing my old glasses and no headaches and I see fine. Waste of time and money.

I had a very good experience at Doctors Vision Care in Martensville. Dr. Justine Harris saw me for my eye exam and she was very thorough and professional. She also saw me for 2 followup appointments (at no additional cost) to fine tune my contact lens prescription. I am very happy with the outcome of this visit and I would recommend Martensville's Doctors Vision Care.

Wow. Went down this morning for my eye exam and everyone was great from the minute I walked in. Very professional and helpful. I was totally impressed. And after the exam I was quickly looked after in picking out a suitable pair of frames. I've been going to this location for 6 plus years now and why look for another optometrist when you have one this goodl right in town

Doctors Vision Care is an amazing, and has such a caring staff! I brought my son in when he was 2.5 yrs old because I noticed his eye was turning inward. They promptly got him in and they were able to tell me that my son needed glasses! Every single time I go in DVC, it is so clean and inviting, and the staff is professional and very friendly!
5+ stars from me!

We have always found great care here with the Doctors, and all the staff.
Firstly my husband had an odd health care insurance carrier (no one ever direct Bill's them for us) the staff here went to work right away to add them to thier list of approved direct bill companies, in no time at all they called us to say we could direct bill and come in to pick out some much needed lenses. They have helped my son who has sensory processing disorder feel comfortable and happy picking out his glasses. The staff was great when my husband picked out a pair of glasses that just didnt work out the way he had
