Dr.Stoter had a great morning talking to high school students about being an Optometrist as a career.

Thanks to The Clarington Board of Trade for organizing an event like this to let students explore and learn about their career options!

When Dr. McPherson decided to move to care for her aging parents, Dr. Rayner purchased the practice after working alongside Dr. McPherson for many years. Dr. Rayner was innovative in bringing new technology and advancing the level of optometric health care to her patients. She introduced several new pieces of exam equipment as well as being one of the first optometric offices in the region to have OCT retinal imaging technology. We are grateful for her foresight as now we have a rich health history on our patients that continues to help our doctors care for them to the fullest. Dr. Rayner’s daughter designed our ‘glasses rock’ that is out front of our office.  Dr. Rayner hired Dr. Stoter in 2012 who in turn purchased the practice from her in 2021.

This month we are celebrating 75 years of caring for the eyes of this community! We thought we would share a little of our history!

The practice was started by Dr. Keith Billett. A local man that came home from his service in WWII as a RCAF pilot to study optometry. Once he was done his studies, he brought his vision and eyewear skills back to care for the people of his hometown. It wasn’t until 1952 that a 4-year doctorate of optometry education was created in Ontario with the first graduating class in 1956. Despite already in practice, Dr. Billett went back for even further education and graduated with his doctorate in 1959 with only 25 others that year.
