Helping to Diagnose & Manage Eye Disease
Eye issues and disease can often develop without warning signs or symptoms. However, if not detected early and managed, these diseases can cause severe damage to your eye health and vision.
At See & Be Seen Eyecare, our team of optometrists uses advanced technology to help diagnose eye disease early during every eye exam.
Eye Disease in Canada
Visiting for an eye exam is about more than just updating your eyeglass prescription. With over 5.59 million Canadians suffering from an eye disease that could cause vision loss or blindness, eye disease diagnosis is a key part of every exam.
To help protect the vision of our patients, we undergo a series of tests during your exam. The tests can help us diagnose eye disease and recommend management and treatment options.
The leading causes of blindness in Canada are:
Even if you aren’t experiencing any symptoms of eye disease, it’s vital to have regular eye exams to ensure none are developing.
