Services
Emergency services for eye infections, eye injuries and other eye urgencies.
Studies have shown that an overwhelming number of emergency room visits could have been treated by an optometrist. These ranged from foreign bodies to severe eye allergies to eye infections as the most common reasons for emergency room visits. It is not always necessary to go to an emergency room for eye emergencies. Our Optometrists are equipped to treat the majority of eye emergencies, and visits can be partially billed to BC Medical Services.
State of the art equipment allows us to examine the front surface of the eye and also digitally scan inside the eye for infection or damage.
