The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends that a child have their first exam at 6 months of age. A child should have a comprehensive exam by 3 years of age. All children should have exams yearly. Every pediatric exam is tailored specifically to each child's abilities and needs.
Most exams include a variety of tests including vision assessment with complete refraction to determine if a prescription for eyewear is necessary, ocular motility testing, stereopsis and colour vision testing, and an ocular health exam.The average pediatric exam lasts approximately 15 minutes. 3. What can I expect if my child needs to have drops at their exam (cycloplegic refraction)?

This review is long over due. I have been going to the optometrist clinic for 24 years and have had nothing but the best experiences. More recently however I purchased a new pair of glasses. The staff are super supportive and helpful. They really do go the extra mile to make sure your glasses are the right fit for you. I was even able to return at any time for adjustments if I needed them. The staff are very calm, polite and professional. Dr. Dos is very friendly and excellent with kids and adults alike. I highly recommend this clinic.

The optometrist and the ladies at the desk were super nice and helpful. However the lady helping me with glasses choice left me much to be desired. The frames choice was decently done.
However when it came to billing, I explained multiple times that I have my benefits then I have my husband’s benefits.
It’s never been a problem to bill both in the proper order. However she said to me they could only bill one insurance company.
So I had to pay out of pocket and submit the rest to my insurance when I would have paid zero.
Suffice to say, I will be looking for another place for my glasses

I overheard one of the head ladies there speaking to her staff quite rudely, I believe her name was Shanda. My overall experience there was alright, the doctors and assistants there were very nice, but I just had a problem with how Shanda is speaking to her staff. As a manager myself, it doesn't sit quite right with me when staff are treated unfairly.

It was my first appointment at this clinic last month. Dr. Evernden saw me that day. I had never met her before. She immediately put me at ease and made the entire appointment not only bearable, but pleasant. She answered all the questions I had and made sure I understood my prescription. At no point did she make me feel rushed or like I was just another patient. The ladies at the reception were also very helpful and kind. Great service all in all!

I have had several pairs of glasses made here and have been uniformly pleased with quality and impressed with service. Had a warranty issue with lenses that was dealt with quickly and professionally with no hassles.
Not quite as pricey as higher end places, but not necessarily budget level either.
Good quality and excellent service, at a fair price. Highly recommended.

On June 8, 2020 I went for an eye exam with Dr. Angela A. Endres, because my preferred Optometrist at the clinic was unavailable until later in the month. My family of 3 have been going to Mayfield Eye Centre for many years, because we value individual care and having a long term relationship in which all parties invest.
During the consultation Dr. Endres probed and I said that I had purchased contact lenses from Costco and that their consultant had invested a lot of time into finding me the right contact lenses and had given excellent service. She told me that Mayfield Eye Centre could sell me

I've been seeing Dr. Doz here since I was 9-10 (I'm 22 now) and he is truly the best. Even though I haven't seen him in 2+ years, he always remembers everything about me- what I'm taking in school, my birthday, my hobbies etc. - without hesitation. He's almost like a "family friend". He's so friendly, does his job incredibly well, super generous (offered me a student discount a couple times on new glasses), and every time I go in for an appointment he always brightens my day.
All of the staff that I've encountered at this location are also great. Super

My optometrist (Dr Gies) and the front end staff were great, efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. If I was rating only them it would be 5 stars! I’ve been seeing him as an optomitrist since I was a child at the Mayfield clinic.
The older blond Polish lady that fits people for glasses was the rudest, most aggresive person I have ever met at an eye clinic. I asked for my pupil distance to be measured as I currently can not afford the hundreds of dollars for the glasses that they offer and want to look at competitors online. Her response to me is the rudest, as “we won’t make money off of

My son had struggled in school from grade 1-3. Our eye doctor referred him to Dr. Pennifold for vision therapy. She was able to explain why he had issues reading words in a paragraph and yet he had no problems with flash cards. Her assessment was very detailed and explained which areas he needed to focus on.
So far he has attended 8 sessions and we can see the difference it has made. Last January his teacher said it was possible for him to improve his reading level to be at grade level but not likely. He was reading at level J and needed to reach O-P to catch up, which was more then one years

Just had the BEST experience at the Capilano location. Booked a last minute appointment because of some eye pain and they were able to accommodate me the same day. In under an hour and a half I got diagnosed with an eye infection, a prescription for drops and a clear plan of action, tracked down an old prescription so they could make me new glasses, picked out and got fitted for frames, and walked out with new glasses. All staff was more than helpful to help me resolve my situation... Very satisfied customer!!!

I was warmly welcomed and helped by the staff.
Dr. Russo was thorough in his examination and explanation of the issues with my eyes. It made it so much easier to accept that I will benefit more by wearing glasses full-time.
Savanna in the optical wear department was very patient as she helped me find the best styles, and even let me take my favorites home for a couple of hours to decide which I felt most happy wearing.
I was very happy with my experience!

My optometrist, Dr Carlson, has been looking after my eyes since I was quite young. He has a calm, quiet demeanour, and is thorough with his explanations and examinations.
The clinic offers a wide variety of glasses, in various shapes, colours, and styles. The staff are great at helping to find a frame that works best for you.
Front end reception: mixed feelings. Sometimes the staff are welcoming, warm, and friendly. Other times they are rude, short tempered, and complain about other patients/co-workers in front of other clients. I was paying for my exam and two staff members were complaining

Dr. Doz was recommended to us by a family friend and he is truly excellent at what he does. I trust him implicitly for my own (somewhat complicated) vision care needs and those of my daughter who wears glasses. He's a family practitioner, so you don't need a referral to see him. We see Dr. Doz at the Capliano location but he also has a downtown location.
