Growing Eyes, Growing Needs

Helping your child see the world clearly.

Kids often assume the way they see is normal, even when it is not. At Optima Eye Care, we make exams relaxed for children from Willowdale West and nearby, explaining each step in simple words and welcoming parents to take part.

A friendly first visit

We take things at your child's pace and keep the experience encouraging, especially if it is their first eye exam.

Skills that support learning

Depending on age, we may check focusing, eye movement, eye alignment, depth perception, and colour vision.

Answers for parents

We explain the findings clearly and talk through any recommendation, such as glasses, in practical terms.

What to Expect

A step-by-step visit for your child.

Each children's exam is tailored to age and development. Here is what a typical appointment includes.

  1. Get comfortable

    We say hello, chat with your child, and hear any concerns you have noticed at home or school.

  2. Check visual skills

    Using age-appropriate activities, we assess clarity, focusing, eye movement, and how both eyes work together.

  3. Look at eye health

    Dr. Rawji examines your child's eyes and explains each step so it feels familiar rather than intimidating.

  4. Share the results

    We discuss the findings with you, explain any recommendation, and suggest when your child should return.

School, Screens, and Play

Their vision shapes how they learn.

Whether your child is reading at a local elementary school or practising a sport on the weekend, clear and comfortable vision supports what they do. A child who squints, holds books close, rubs their eyes, or loses their place while reading may be working harder to see than they realize. These signs are worth a closer look.

During the exam, we will also ask about homework, reading habits, screen time, and activities. Share anything you have noticed at home or anything a teacher has mentioned. These details help us tailor the visit to your child and explain the results in a way that makes sense for your family.

Easy Planning for Families

A visit that fits around your family's week.

Parents from Willowdale West often combine their child's exam with their own or a sibling's. Let us know who needs an appointment when you call, and we will look for times that work together. Our clinic on Gordon Baker Road is reachable from the Yonge corridor by heading east along Finch or Steeles Avenue.

It can help to tell your child what to expect ahead of time. They will look at pictures or letters, follow lights, and let the optometrist look at their eyes. Nothing should hurt, and you are welcome to stay with them throughout the visit.

My child passed a school screening. Do they still need an exam?

A school screening is a helpful first check, but it does not replace a comprehensive eye exam. A full exam looks at visual skills and eye health that a distance chart alone cannot assess.

What if my child cannot read letters yet?

That is fine. We use age-appropriate methods, such as pictures and shapes, so younger children can take part comfortably.

Can I stay with my child during the exam?

Yes. Parents and caregivers are welcome to be part of the visit and to ask questions along the way.

What signs suggest my child should be seen?

Squinting, holding books very close, frequent eye rubbing, headaches, losing their place while reading, or trouble seeing the board can all be reasons to book. Some concerns are not obvious, so routine exams are valuable too.

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.
