👓 Brenda’s in the office this morning making calls to remind patients when it’s time for their eye exam! Regular check-ups help keep your vision clear and your eyes healthy.

Prefer to book without a phone call? You can schedule your appointment online anytime!

It’s been a jam-packed week of kids’ eye exams, stubborn corneal ulcers, and sudden vision loss cases

But the highlight? Dr. Starko’s new glasses finally arrived!

✨ I’m already loving the Zeiss gold coating (hello, smudge-free lenses 🙌) and can’t wait to test out my new eco clip-on sunglasses this weekend. ☀️🕶️

Ps. Thanks is good coffee bar & more for the Brown Sugar Latte to get me through Friday afternoon charts

Help us welcome our newest team member Ashley!

Born and raised in Calmar, Ashley’s a proud hockey & baseball mom to 2 awesome boys and fur mom to 3 lovable dogs. When she’s not cheering from the stands, she enjoys camping with her husband and kids, spending time with family and friends and spoiling her pups. After 20 years in hotel catering & sales, she’s excited to bring her passion for helping people to her new role in optometry!

Whether it’s your baby’s very first check-up or your teen’s back-to-school tune-up, we’ve got their eyes covered. Alberta Health Care covers annual eye exams for all children at our clinic — so there’s no cost to you.

We still have a few appointments left before the first day of school! Let’s make sure they start the year seeing their best.

We are thrilled to take part in Calmar’s Art Walk this year! It’s such a joy to see our community’s creativity on display, and we get to enjoy a beautiful piece on our front desk!

So grateful for the Town of Calmar in helping make the 2025 Calmar Art Walk possible!! All you need to do is take a stroll down Calmar mainstreet this month (with a passport, available at the Town office) to view the beautiful works of our local artists for a chance to win $500 cash!!

There’s a new local face joining our team, and we can’t wait for you to meet her.
Stay tuned later this week for the full introduction!

We’re so excited! Our very first Zeiss Duravision Gold lenses are back from the lab!

These premium lenses offer superior scratch resistance and are a dream to keep clean — Dr. Starko can’t wait to get her own pair!

If you’re tired of scratches and constantly cleaning your lenses, ask us about upgrading to Zeiss Duravision Gold coating!

Ever find it hard to switch focus from your phone to the TV (or vice versa)? You’re not alone — even Mr. Starko noticed the struggle.

That’s why he recently upgraded to Zeiss Anti-Fatigue lenses in a fashion-forward J.F. Rey frame. These lenses are designed to support your eyes during frequent screen use by making near-to-far focus changes smoother and more comfortable.

The result? Less eye strain, easier transitions between screens, and a much more relaxed Mr. Starko.

If your eyes are working overtime, we’d love to help.
