Protecting What You See Most

Early attention makes a difference.

Macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. Dr. Mustafa Rawji helps patients from Richmond Hill detect signs early, monitor changes over time, and coordinate with other specialists when additional care is needed.

Early detection

Regular eye exams can help identify signs of macular degeneration in its earliest stages.

Ongoing monitoring

Follow-up visits let us compare findings over time and notice changes promptly.

Coordinated care

When further assessment or treatment is needed, we help arrange referral to the appropriate specialist.

What to Expect

What a macular health visit involves.

Every visit is guided by your history and current findings. Here is what you can generally expect.

  1. Review your history

    Share your health history, family history of eye disease, and any changes in your central vision.

  2. Check your vision

    We assess how clearly you see, including at the distances you use most for reading and daily tasks.

  3. Examine the macula

    Your optometrist examines the back of the eye and explains any additional testing recommended.

  4. Plan monitoring and referral

    We set a follow-up schedule and arrange referral to a specialist if needed.

Why Regular Exams Matter

Changes can be subtle at first.

In its early stages, macular degeneration may cause few noticeable symptoms. That is why regular eye exams are so important, particularly as you get older or if the condition runs in your family. Your optometrist examines the macula, the part of the eye responsible for sharp central vision.

For older adults near Richmond Hill, keeping up with routine exams is one of the most practical steps toward protecting vision. If signs are found, we will explain what they mean and how often you should be seen. Clear information helps you feel more in control.

A Plan That Fits

Support for daily life.

If you are diagnosed with macular degeneration, your care plan will depend on the type and stage of the condition. Your optometrist will explain the findings, recommend a monitoring schedule, and refer you to a specialist when further assessment or treatment is appropriate. You will know who to contact and when.

Let us know about any changes you notice between visits, such as straight lines appearing wavy or a blurry spot in your central vision. Prompt communication helps ensure changes are assessed in a timely way. Family members are welcome to join appointments if that is helpful.

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.
