🚨 NEW FRAME LINE ALERT 🚨
We're excited to introduce a JUST LAUNCHED frame line to our 👓 frame gallery. Designed right here in Canada 🍁, Ió:ken Designs eyewear blends bold trendy looks with deep cultural meaning. Each frame features original artwork by Mohawk artist Bruce Boots, inspired by authentic Indigenous symbols such as the Hiawatha Belt, Eagle Feather, Berries and Beads, and the Seven Generations. Ió:ken (pronounced Yo-Guh) translates to “It’s Clear” in the Kanien’keha (Mohawk) language. Discover eyewear that tells a story. 🧡

Eye care is so much more than just a prescription. Regular eye exams are an important part of preventive health care. Access to timely care makes a real difference. Visit www.YourVisionMatters.ca to get involved.

A comprehensive eye exam allows an optometrist to see what you can’t, and is the best way to detect glaucoma in its early stages -- before irreversible vision loss occurs! When was the last time you had your eyes assessed? 👀

Could you be at risk for glaucoma?

Glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it can develop without obvious symptoms in its early stages. Factors like high eye pressure, family history, age, and cardiovascular health can increase your risk.

The good news? Early detection makes all the difference. Regular eye exams are key to protecting your vision!

Take action today: Book your eye exam with your optometrist, and stay ahead of glaucoma.
