All jokes aside, seeing spots isn’t always harmless.

Retinal Tears & Detachments
New floaters, flashes of light, or a shadow/curtain in your vision can be early signs of a retinal tear or detachment. These can progress quickly and need urgent attention to protect your vision.

Diabetes
Spots, blurred vision, or fluctuating vision may be signs of diabetic retinopathy. The eyes are often among the first places we detect changes in diabetes.....sometimes before other symptoms appear.

Hypertension
High blood pressure can quietly affect the small blood vessels in your eyes. You may not feel anything systemically, but your vision can start to change.

Any change in your vision is worth a visit to your optometrists.

Glaucoma is like a donut being eaten from the inside out.

At first, everything looks fine on the outside.
But deep in the centre, at the optic nerve, a small “bite” starts to form.

You won’t feel it.
You won’t notice it.

But over time, that missing piece slowly expands… until it begins to affect your vision, and by then, the damage is permanent.

That’s glaucoma.

It’s painless. Silent. And progressive.

With routine eye exams and advanced imaging such as OCT, we can detect these subtle “bites” early, before they become more serious.

Don’t wait until you notice vision loss. Book your eye exam today.

The all-new TOTAL30 monthly disposable contact lenses are now available in Canada. Marking the first time in over a decade that the monthly disposable contact lens segment will see a dramatic step forward in lens technology. With around 70% of the market still wearing monthly or 2-week disposable lenses, this has the potential to change people's perception of contact lens comfort dramatically.

TOTAL30® are the world's first and only monthly replacement Water Gradient contact lenses. So you can look forward to lenses so comfortable they feel like nothing, even at day 30.

Myopia (defined as any eyeglass prescription greater than -0.50 D.S.) is at epidemic levels in Canada.

Currently 30-35% of Canadian children need glasses or contact lenses to see clearly in the distance and in the classroom. Not only is this a personal inconvenience, but it can also have serious vision consequences.

Even mild myopia or nearsightedness (-0.50D to -2.00D) increases a personal relative risk by 2X of developing a retinal detachment, cataracts or myopic macular degeneration. When a prescription increases past -5.00 D, the risk of retinal detachment is 9X higher; by -8.00D, it's 21X higher.

Thankfully though your optometrist as access to a number of treatments to manage myopia progression in kids. Although these treatments cannot reverse myopia, they can help slow the progression by as much as 59%, which can help reduce a child's relative risk of secondary eye disease.

In addition, they can help keep prescriptions within a range to which refractive eye surgery like LASIK or PRK may still be an option in the future.

If you want to know if your child is a candidate for myopia treatments, book an eye exam with one of our optometrists.

In general, eye doctors don't love permanent eyelash extensions and fills. The reason is that they allow bacteria to gather at the base of your natural lashes, which can lead to premature eyelash loss and thinner eyelashes over time. This bacteria can also cause your eyelid margins to look red and inflamed.

But if you must, you should also make sure that you're cleaning your eyelids before having them applied as well as between fills. Performing warm compresses with a BruderMask and using preservative-free hypoallergenic products like Blephaclean or a daily cleanser and makeup remover like I-LID 'N LASH is a great way to keep your natural eyelashes clean and healthy as well as prepare your lids and lashes for a fill.

Does your child's prescription keep getting stronger every year?

If so, it might be time to talk to one of our optometrists about myopia control treatments such as MiSight 1-Day contact lenses. In clinical trials over a 3-year period, MiSight contact lenses were shown to reduce myopia (nearsighted) progression by 59%, versus a regular 1-day contact lens.

If you're interested in learning more, book your child in for an eye exam with one of our optometrists and let's discuss your options.
