Aging doesn’t have to come with poor vision. At Komoka Optometry, we take a preventative approach to eye health for adults and seniors by performing regular comprehensive eye exams to help detect eye health issues and other diseases as early as possible. During our exams we take the time to listen and get to know you, so we can better understand your needs and your health history. It’s important to us that we are at the forefront of detection technology, so we are always investing in new equipment to help serve you better.

If you’re over 65, it’s important that you have a yearly comprehensive eye exam to monitor your vision and allow for the early detection of eye diseases to possibly slow down the progression. At your annual exam we will check your prescription, test your eye coordination, depth perception, colour vision, eye pressure and monitor your overall eye health. We screen all of our adult and senior patients for age-related eye diseases like macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma.

Our Doctor of Optometry will also make ophthalmology referrals where necessary for a consultation or surgery.

At Komoka Optometry, your Doctor of Optometry is highly-trained to deal with any eye emergency that might come up in your day-to-day life. If you’re experiencing an eye emergency like red eyes (red, pink or itchy), a foreign body in the eye, double vision, warped or tunnel vision, sudden flashes or floaters, abnormally blurry vision or eye pain, it’s important that you call us to make an urgent appointment. Seeking treatment for eye emergencies is an important step in protecting your vision and the ongoing health of your eyes. Our staff will work quickly to get you the best emergency eye care, as soon as possible.

Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears, or when the tears evaporate off the surface of your eye too quickly. This can lead to an unstable tear film, resulting in inflammation and damage to the eye’s surface. Over time this can leave your eyes dry, gritty, red and sensitive to light. If this happens, you could benefit from dry eye management.

It’s more common than most people realize and can affect anyone, often made worse by aging, medications, screen use, or environmental factors. Beyond discomfort, dry eye can also blur or fluctuate your vision, making daily tasks like reading, driving, or computer work more difficult.

The good news is that dry eye is highly manageable. With advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment, we can identify the root cause and create a plan to restore comfort, protect your eyes, and improve your quality of life.

When you visit Komoka Optometry to choose a new pair of glasses, we want you to leave with frames that fit your face and eyes as well as they fit your unique personality. Our optometrist and optician work together as a team to help you select frames and lenses that are right for your personal style and your prescription. While choosing frames, we help you to select a pair in the right size and shape for your face, so we can adjust your frames to fit you comfortably. When selecting lenses, our team ensures your lenses have the proper lens design, material and coatings so you can see clearly, based on your specific eye shape and condition. Before you take your new glasses home, we fit and adjust the frames to make sure your nose, ears and eyes are as comfortable as possible. We want you to love your new glasses, so you can see clearly and feel like yourself.

Specially fitted contact lenses are a great choice for athletes, active people or anyone who needs a short term or long term eyewear alternative. Choosing the right contact lenses for your eye is important for your vision and eye comfort. Our optometrist will choose a lens material, fitting design and a lens care regime that works for your lifestyle and any eye conditions you may have. Then we will suggest the best type and brand of contact lens for your needs.

We also specialize in fitting contacts for patients who have astigmatism, or have trouble seeing up close. Multi-focal, toric and scleral contact lenses fit differently, so it’s important to consult your optometrist for a lens fitting, so we can customize the fit and lens material to suit your unique eye shape and vision needs.

Call us to book your comprehensive eye exam and contact lens fitting.

Your doctor of optometry plays an important role in the co-management of the eye surgery process, including laser eye surgery and cataract surgery. It’s important to work with an optometrist who knows you and understands your eye health and history when preparing for any kind of eye surgery.

If you’re looking into laser eye surgery, your Doctor of Optometry can see you for a laser eye surgery consultation to determine if you’re a candidate and which surgery option best suits your needs. We can then make a referral to a trusted clinic and provide a pre-op consultation. After your operation, we follow up on your healing progress and vision to make sure you’re seeing as clearly as possible.

Call Komoka Optometry to set up an appointment for a laser eye surgery consultation, so we can answer all of your questions and determine if you’re a candidate.

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is becoming more common in children and tends to worsen as they grow. At Komoka Optometry, we offer personalized myopia management plans to help slow the progression and protect long-term vision.

Using advanced diagnostic tools like the Topcon MYAH, we track eye growth and customize treatment with options such as:

• Specialty myopia control contact lenses (MiSight, ortho-k)
• Low-dose atropine drops
• Lifestyle and screen-time guidance

Our goal is to help reduce the risk of future vision complications like retinal detachment or glaucoma. Early intervention makes a difference—book a consultation to see if your child is a candidate.
