Kids' Eye Exams

Comprehensive eye exams here in Kelowna early on is imperative. High Myopia has been increasing worldwide, and has been linked to a greater likelihood of developing eye diseases later on. Our uniquely effective myopia management helps children stop or slow progression to higher degrees of myopia, saving them from blurry vision.

Concussion Vision Rehab

Visual deficits such as blurry vision due to concussions, physical disabilities, or neurological issues like stroke are common - our optometrists in Kelowna target disruptions in the brain-eye connection and balance system. We address eye teaming, focusing, tracking, vertigo, and dizziness issues.

Vision Therapy

You or your child may have 20/20 vision with glasses, yet it's still not right. Vision problems in children can produce symptoms similar to ADHD, such as a short attention span, a tendency to fidget, and making careless mistakes. Is your child's vision working as it should?
