Calm Visits for Young Patients

Kids don't always know they can't see well.

If blur is all a child has ever known, they may never mention it. For families near Parkwoods, our children's eye exams look at how your child sees, focuses, and tracks, and check the health of their eyes, with plenty of patience and a parent close by.

Support for learning

We consider the visual skills that help with reading, writing, and following along in class.

Parents included

You are welcome in the room and encouraged to share what you have noticed at home.

Clear recommendations

If glasses or a follow-up is suggested, we explain the reasons in everyday language.

What to Expect

A friendly visit, start to finish.

Every children's exam is adapted to age and development. Here is what to expect.

  1. Say hello

    We introduce ourselves, explain what will happen, and listen to any concerns you have.

  2. Check vision skills

    Depending on age, we assess clarity, focusing, eye teaming, and eye movement.

  3. Look at eye health

    Your child's optometrist examines the eyes, describing each step in a reassuring way.

  4. Share the results

    We explain the findings, discuss any recommendations, and suggest when to return.

Beyond the School Screening

A screening is a start, not the whole picture.

School vision screenings are a helpful first check, but they usually focus on distance vision. A comprehensive exam can look at focusing, eye alignment, eye movement, depth perception, colour vision, and eye health, depending on your child's age. These skills all play a part in comfortable reading and learning.

If your child did not pass a screening, or you still have concerns after a passed one, a full exam can help. Bring any screening results or teacher notes to the visit. They give your child's optometrist useful context about what has been noticed in the classroom.

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.
