Good news coming! 🥳 Optometrists already have the skills to manage glaucoma and do these procedures, but are limited by scope. Allowing us to practice as we were trained will relieve the burden on specialists and reduce wait times!

The government is consulting on proposed changes that could expand optometrists’ scope of practice — including the ability to manage glaucoma, perform minor surgical and laser procedures, and order diagnostic tests.

We commend the Ontario government for recognizing the critical role optometrists play in delivering accessible, patient-centred care.

These changes would mean faster access, fewer unnecessary referrals, and stronger recognition of the vital role optometrists play in protecting your vision.
OAO is at the table, ensuring the profession’s voice is heard as we work together toward a stronger future for eye care in Ontario.

It was so great to see how hard they work to find new ways to help their patients get the best possible outcomes, and I was able to pick up a tips from the vestibular pros too! Make sure you check out one of their many locations in the GTA ⭐️

75% of vision loss is preventable with early detection and treatment, yet many Ontarians face unnecessary delays in care. Optometrists can help reduce ER visits by managing common eye conditions. It’s time to modernize Ontario’s vision care system.
