At Chan Optometry, we understand that your first eye exam can be quite a challenge. Going into your first eye exam without any prior knowledge can be considered stressful or laborious. Still, with a little preparation, you can handle your eye exam quickly and easily.

As professional optometrists, it’s essential for us to keep updated on the latest optometric trends and find fresh sources of creative inspiration while staying connected to other professionals.

Though we rely on our eyes for so much in our lives, the importance of eye care is often underrated. We fail to recognize the early symptoms of eye problems which result in getting our eyes checked only after their conditions worsen. 

As a professional eye doctor and optometrist in Markham, Richmond Hill, ON, I want to help protect and preserve your eyesight so that you can enjoy a healthy vision for a long as possible. To ensure this happens, I have put together a list of five tips to help you maintain eye health.

Eye problems are becoming more rampant in society and are leading to severe illnesses such as glaucoma, retinal disease, and even blindness. Thankfully over the past few years, an increased focus on research within the eye care industry has led to breakthroughs.

Many of us take the gift of sight for granted and ask - “Why test my eyes when I can see clearly?” If you are one of the many who ask a similar question, the chances are that you may contract one of the many sight-threatening eye diseases, but fail to get it treated in time. 

At Chan Optometry, we prioritize customer service and satisfaction. To let you know just how committed we’re to your happiness, here’s what a few delighted customers had to say about us..

20/20 is essentially a comparison between you and someone with “normal vision”. The first 20 is you, standing 20 feet away looking at a very small object. That doesn’t change, always stays the same.
