Vision Testing
(Automated Sight Testing)
We provide on site vision tests to help update customer's prescription. This is done at no charge with the purchase of glasses or contact lenses. During a vision test, patients will be refracted to detect any vision loss and will be provided with an accurate Rx in regards to glasses and contact lenses. Please note, this service is only available for patient that are over 18 and under 65. All children and seniors must see an optometrist. More details below.
Comprehensive Eye Exam A comprehensive eye exam performed by an optometrist looks at the entire eye and vision system and is an important part of preventative health care. Eye exams assess vision-how well you see-but also how well your eyes work together as a team, and the health of the eyes inside and out. Think of it as a physical for your eyes.

A thorough eye exam from an Optometrist includes:
  • Assessment of Eye Health to diagnose a range of diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration.
  • Analysis of how well the eyes focus at all distances.
  • Measuring of muscle alignment of the two eyes working as a team-called Binocular Vision.
  • Colour Vision assessment.
  • Consideration of the patient's visual needs, at work and at play, to determine the ideal prescriptions for Eyeglasses and/or Contact Lenses.

An eye exam could uncover anything from a minor deficiency of the tears to major eye diseases or disorders like glaucoma or retinal detachments. Eye exams can even detect signs of problems elsewhere in the body-serious conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and brain tumours.
