Quality Eye Exams and Vision Care SW Calgary

Dry eyes can be uncomfortable, but there are several treatments available. Over-the-counter artificial tears are often the first line of defense. For more persistent cases, our optometrists may recommend prescription eye drops, lifestyle changes, or procedures like punctal plugs that help retain tears on the eye surface. Identifying the underlying cause is key to effective treatment, which we can determine during your dry eye exams.

Absolutely! Our optometrists are skilled in fitting contact lenses for all types of vision needs.

During a comprehensive eye exam, our experienced optometrists will perform a series of tests to evaluate your vision and eye health. This includes assessing your visual acuity (sharpness), checking for refractive errors (like nearsightedness or farsightedness), and examining the health of your eyes using specialized equipment. We’ll also screen for conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.

The exam typically lasts about 30 to 60 minutes and is a comfortable, thorough process designed to ensure your eyes are in top condition.
