Little Eyes, Big Days

Helping kids see the world clearly.

Children rarely say their vision is blurry because they may not know anything is different. Our team welcomes Hillcrest Village families with a patient, encouraging approach, so children feel at ease and parents leave with clear answers.

A relaxed experience

We use age-appropriate language and give children time to warm up and respond at their own pace.

A full picture of vision

Depending on age, the exam may include clarity, eye alignment, focusing, depth perception, and eye health.

Clear answers for parents

If glasses or follow-up are recommended, we explain the reasons and options in practical terms.

What to Expect

What happens at your child's exam.

We adjust each exam to your child's age and comfort level. A typical visit follows these steps.

  1. Hello and history

    We greet your child, then talk with you about their health, development, and any concerns from home or school.

  2. Vision check

    Age-appropriate activities help us assess how clearly your child sees and whether glasses may help.

  3. Visual skills and eye health

    We may look at eye teaming, focusing, eye movement, colour vision, and the health of the eyes.

  4. Your family's plan

    We go over the results with you and recommend next steps and when to come back.

Clues at Home

Small habits can say a lot.

Holding a book very close, tilting the head, covering one eye, rubbing the eyes often, or avoiding detailed work can all be signs that a child is working harder to see. Headaches after school or losing their place while reading are also worth mentioning. You know your child best, and your observations help us focus the exam.

Parents from Hillcrest Village often tell us they were unsure whether a concern was worth checking. If something has caught your attention, it is reasonable to book a visit. Even without obvious symptoms, routine comprehensive eye exams are valuable as children grow.

Glasses and Next Steps

Support if your child needs glasses.

If your optometrist recommends glasses, we explain how they may help with schoolwork, play, or both. Our team can help you choose frames that fit comfortably and suit your child's activities. Letting children have a say in their frames can make them more excited to wear them.

Some findings call for monitoring or a follow-up visit rather than glasses right away. Either way, you will understand what was found and when to return. Bringing notes from a teacher or a school vision screening can make that conversation even more useful.

Why does my child need an exam if they had a school screening?

School screenings are helpful but limited. A comprehensive exam looks more closely at visual skills and eye health that a screening may not cover.

What signs suggest my child should be seen?

Squinting, sitting close to screens, holding books close, frequent eye rubbing, headaches, or trouble seeing the board are all good reasons to book.

Can both parents come to the appointment?

Parents and caregivers are welcome. Having someone familiar in the room often helps children feel more relaxed.

Can I book exams for siblings at the same time?

Let our team know when you call, and we will do our best to arrange visits that work for your family.

Dr rawji and patty are great. I’ve been with them for over 10 years. He was concerned of an issue that I was getting and sent me to a specialist. Patty always make sure that I get Stylish classes every couple of years. Their new office is nice and it located close to 404 and 401.
