Frequently Asked Questions | Innovation Eye Clinic

At Innovation Eye Clinic, your eye exam is all about you. You will never feel rushed. During your appointment, Dr. Jason will walk you through the exam and answer any questions you have. This is your time, and we're here to make it count!

Dr. Jason will conduct a series of assessments during your exam to determine both your vision prescription and the overall health of your eyes.

These tests will check for the presence of eye diseases, and other ocular health issues.

By using a retinal camera, we can diagnose and monitor any eye conditions and an OCT scan will provide a detailed image of the back of your eye. Our screenings also cover disorders such as glaucoma, cataracts, retinal detachments, and macular degeneration.

Our eye exams may also reveal underlying health problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and brain tumors. To make the process of writing your prescription as accurate and efficient as possible, we use an Auto Phoropter.

In certain cases, a specialist or ophthalmologist may be consulted for further evaluation or surgical consultation.

Eye exams are covered under OHIP for ages 19 and under, or 65 and over. For ages 20 to 64, part of your eye exam may be covered under certain medical conditions. Retinal imaging is highly recommended to screen and monitor eye diseases, and are not covered under OHIP. Please call us if you would like further information.

The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends that infants have their eyes tested for the first time as early as 6 months old.

Please bring:

• your current prescription glasses/contact lenses

• OHIP card and insurance information

• an updated list of your medications

• sunglasses incase we choose to dilate your eyes
