Macular Care Near Bayview Woods–Steeles
For adults near Bayview Woods–Steeles, our North York clinic offers careful eye exams to help detect macular degeneration early and monitor changes over the years.
Long-Term Partnership
Macular degeneration affects central vision and is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. Dr. Mustafa Rawji helps identify signs early, tracks changes at each visit, and coordinates specialist referral when it is needed.
Each visit is compared with the last so subtle changes in the macula are easier to recognize.
Understand what your results mean and what they could mean for reading, driving, and daily tasks.
If treatment is needed, we help arrange a referral and stay involved in your ongoing eye care.
What to Expect
Macular care combines careful examination with a clear plan. Here is a typical appointment.
Share any changes in your vision, health conditions, medications, and family history.
We assess clarity and how your central vision is performing for tasks like reading.
Your optometrist examines the back of the eye and explains any further testing recommended.
Set a follow-up schedule and, if needed, arrange referral for specialist assessment or treatment.
Early Signs
Macular degeneration can make straight lines look bent, cause a blurry patch in the middle of your vision, or make faces harder to recognize. Some people notice they need brighter light to read. Others notice nothing at first, which is why regular exams are so useful.
If you notice a sudden change in your central vision, contact the clinic promptly instead of waiting for your next routine appointment. If the change comes with stroke-like symptoms such as facial drooping or weakness, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
Reading glasses may not explain every change.

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.
