Macular Care Near Newtonbrook East
Macular degeneration can affect reading, faces, and fine detail. Adults near Newtonbrook East can book exams and ongoing monitoring at our Gordon Baker Road clinic.
Detection and Monitoring
Macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss among older adults. For patients near Newtonbrook East, Dr. Mustafa Rawji uses regular eye exams to look for early signs, monitor changes over time, and coordinate referral to a specialist when further care is needed.
Your exam includes a close look at the macula, the part of the eye responsible for detailed central vision.
Regular visits create a record so your optometrist can notice changes between appointments.
If specialist treatment may help, we help coordinate a referral and keep you informed.
What to Expect
Each visit builds on your history so changes are easier to spot. Here is how a typical appointment works.
Share any changes in your vision, your health, medications, and family history of eye disease.
We assess how clearly you see and ask about any distortion or blurry spots.
Your optometrist closely examines the back of the eye and compares findings with previous visits.
Discuss results, follow-up timing, and whether a referral for further care is recommended.
Understanding the Condition
Macular degeneration affects the macula, which supports the sharp central vision you use for reading, recognizing faces, and seeing fine detail. Early stages may cause few noticeable symptoms. That is why regular eye exams matter, especially as you get older or if the condition runs in your family.
If you notice straight lines looking wavy, a blurry or dark spot in the centre of your vision, or difficulty reading that new glasses do not fix, mention it promptly. Sudden changes should not wait for a routine visit. Call the clinic so our team can advise you.
A comfortable space for regular check-ins.

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.
