Call First, Then Come In

Prompt guidance for urgent eye concerns.

Optima Eye Care helps patients from Willowdale West and surrounding neighbourhoods with urgent concerns such as corneal scratches, eye infections, and foreign objects. Phone us as soon as symptoms start so our team can advise you and arrange care when possible.

Start with a phone call

Describe your symptoms to our team at (416) 497-3705 so we can help you decide how quickly you should be seen.

Focused eye assessment

An optometrist has the training and tools to examine the eye closely and identify what may be causing your symptoms.

Follow-up when needed

Urgent issues sometimes need monitoring. We explain what to watch for and when to return.

What to Expect

What happens during an urgent visit.

Urgent visits focus on the concern that brought you in. Here is the general approach.

  1. Describe what happened

    Tell us when symptoms started, what may have caused them, and whether your vision has changed.

  2. Check your vision

    We measure how well you see so any change can be documented and compared later.

  3. Examine the affected eye

    Your optometrist examines the eye closely to look for scratches, infection, foreign material, or other causes.

  4. Agree on care and follow-up

    We explain the findings, recommended care, warning signs to watch for, and any referral if one is needed.

Know When to Call

Symptoms that should not wait.

Sudden eye pain, redness that does not settle, light sensitivity, discharge, or something stuck in your eye are all reasons to contact us promptly. A scratch from a fingernail, a branch, or a contact lens can feel alarming and should be checked. Waiting for symptoms to clear on their own can sometimes lead to complications.

Call 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency department right away for a chemical splash, a penetrating injury, a severe blow to the eye, or sudden vision loss with other stroke-like symptoms. For a chemical splash, rinse the eye with clean water while help is arranged. These situations need immediate emergency care.

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.
