Glaucoma is often referred to as the silent thief of sight and is one of the leading causes of blindness in Canada. . Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which lead to progressive degeneration of the optic nerve. This in turn can lead to loss of nerve tissue that results in gradual irreversible vision loss and potential blindness if not detected and treated early. .... Routine comprehensive eye exams are extremely important in diagnosing and treating glaucoma and other diseases.

When we’re young we’re told not to read in the dark because it will damage our eyes. Well, for those of us that used to hide under the blankets with a flashlight, it may have caused minor eye strain, but no permanent damage. If your struggles with reading or other vision issues persist, book an appointment with our optometrists to have your eyes examined. .

Please protect your eyes while adventuring in the snow! It’s essential to wear goggles or good quality sunglasses because the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays are easily underestimated on mountains, with a high risk of sunburn and cataracts. . Because mountain air is cool, it gives a false sense of security about the sunlight. The higher the altitude, the greater the ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Even when your eyes are turned away from the sun, they can still get over 85% more... UVR on snow. .

How often should you get a comprehensive eye exam? . The ideal frequency of eye exams will depend on a patient’s age and risk factors. We recommend that parents bring children in for their first eye exam at around six months of age, again around their third birthday, and once more before first grade. These early childhood eye exams are essential for catching, diagnosing, and treating any vision problems they may have before they have a chance to interfere with their learning.... . After that, in most cases we recommend an eye exam every other year up until age 60. For patients age 60 and up, we’d like to see you on a yearly basis. However, your case might be different, and we can determine how often to set those appointments when we see you! . Please contact us to for more information or to book an appointment. . #eyes #health #eyeexam #eyehealth #vision #optometry #sight #color #glasses #sunglasses #contactlenses #healthcheck #yvr #hollyburneyeclinic #lonsdale #northvan #fall #autumn See more

With Halloween just around the corner, please be careful with decorative contact lenses! Like contact lenses for visual correction, cosmetic contact lenses are classified as medical devices, and can pose a risk of harm due to improper fit, use, or care. . Complications can be serious, including vision loss. Please contact us to properly fit your cosmetic contact lenses. If blurred vision, redness, discomfort, swelling or discharge occurs, stop using the lenses immediately and see your doctor of optometry. . #halloween #eyes #eye #color #safety #contactlenses #spooky #costume #health #vision #sight #optometry #yvr #vancouver

Did you know that sight tests and eye exams are quite different? A sight test is not a proper eye exam and is not performed by a trained and licensed professional. An optometrist, on the other hand, can examine, diagnose, treat, manage and help prevent diseases and disorders affecting the visual system, the eye and related structures, as well as check an individual’s prescription and prescribe eyewear. . #eyes #eyehealth #health #wellness #sight #vision #eyeexam #optometry #optometrist #doctor #eyewear #glasses #sunglasses #contactlenses #yvr #hollyburneyeclinic #lonsdale #northvancouver #vancouver #color #ootd #photography
