Kids' Vision Near York Mills–Silver Hills
New places can feel big to little ones. Families near York Mills–Silver Hills can visit our North York clinic for a gentle, unhurried exam that puts children at ease.
Small Patients, Big Welcome
Young children do not always sit still or know how to describe what they see, and that is perfectly fine. Dr. Mustafa Rawji uses age-appropriate tests and simple explanations, and parents from York Mills–Silver Hills are welcome to stay close throughout the visit.
We give children time to respond and take breaks when they need them.
Younger children may not need to read letters. We choose methods that fit their age and development.
Stay with your child, share what you have noticed, and hear the results directly.
What to Expect
Every visit is adapted to your child's age and comfort. Here is what a typical exam includes.
We get to know your child and hear about anything you have noticed at home or school.
Using age-appropriate methods, we assess how clearly your child sees.
Depending on age, we check alignment, focusing, and tracking, and examine the eyes.
We share the findings, answer your questions, and recommend the next visit.
Before the First Visit
Talk with your child ahead of time about looking at pictures and lights with the eye doctor. Bring a favourite toy or book if it helps them feel secure. Choose an appointment time when they are usually rested, not right before a nap.
If you have noticed anything at home, such as squinting, head tilting, one eye drifting, or sitting very close to screens, jot it down. Parents near York Mills–Silver Hills often tell us these small notes are what made the visit most useful. Your observations are an important part of the exam.
Friendly faces greet you at the front desk.
What We Look For
Depending on your child's age, we may assess visual clarity, refractive error, eye alignment, focusing, eye movement, depth perception, and colour vision. We also check the health of the eyes. These skills support reading, sports, and play long before a child can tell you something is off.
If glasses or another next step is recommended, we explain why in practical terms. If everything looks healthy, we will let you know when to return. School screenings are a helpful start, but they do not replace a full exam like this one.
A calm space to settle in before the exam.

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.
