Kids' Eye Care Near Parkway Forest
Children rely on their eyes for reading, play, and discovering the world. Families near Parkway Forest can visit our North York clinic for a relaxed exam that checks vision and eye health at your child's pace.
Growing Eyes, Patient Care
Kids do not always know when their vision is different from their friends'. Dr. Mustafa Rawji explains each step in simple words, gives children time to answer, and invites parents and caregivers to stay close throughout the exam.
We keep things calm and encouraging so new equipment and a new room feel less intimidating.
Depending on age, we may check focusing, eye alignment, eye movement, depth perception, colour vision, and eye health.
If glasses or another next step is recommended, we explain why in practical terms you can share at home.
What to Expect
Each exam is adapted to your child's age, development, and needs. A typical visit looks like this.
We ask about schoolwork, reading, screen time, sports, and anything you have noticed at home.
Using age-appropriate methods, we assess how clearly your child sees and whether glasses may help.
Depending on age, we check focusing, eye teaming, eye movements, and the health of the eyes.
We walk you through the results and any recommended next steps, including when to return.
School, Screens, and Play
A child who squints at the board, holds a tablet very close, or rubs their eyes after homework may be telling you something about their vision. Some children lose their place while reading or avoid detailed tasks without ever mentioning blur. These clues are worth sharing with your optometrist, even if they seem minor.
School vision screenings are a helpful first check, but they do not replace a comprehensive exam. A full visit looks beyond distance vision to the skills that support reading, sports, and everyday learning. If your child did not pass a screening, or you still have concerns after a pass, book an exam for a closer look.
A comfortable place to wait together.

Yes. Parents and caregivers are welcome to be part of the visit, and your presence often helps children feel more at ease.
A screening is a useful first check, but a comprehensive exam assesses more visual skills and eye health. If you have concerns, an exam can give you a clearer picture.
Squinting, sitting very close to screens, frequent eye rubbing, headaches, losing their place while reading, or trouble seeing the board are all good reasons to book.
Your optometrist will explain why glasses are recommended and what they are meant to help with, so you can make an informed decision.
