The eye exam is tailored to address the unique needs of each patient. We can recommend the most suitable options, like prescription glasses, corrective lenses, or even surgeries, based on the assessment results.

How Often Should I Get My Eyes Tested?

The frequency of eye examinations differs for each individual. Before scheduling an appointment, please check the stipulated frequency of eye exams, as the Canadian Association of Optometrists suggested.

​

• Infants: once between 6 and 9 months of age
• Preschool kids: at least once between 2 and 5 years of age
• School-age children: once every year
• Healthy adults: once every 2 years
• Healthy adults who wear contact lenses: once a year
• Senior adults: once a year

 

Apart from the above, people who are on medication, diagnosed with an eye disease, or have a family history of eye diseases or a systemic disease like diabetes should get their eyes tested once a year or as suggested by their optometrist. At Dr. Specs Optical, we provide personalized services to our clients. The on-site independent optometrist has valuable experience and expertise in diagnosing and treating all kinds of vision-related faults.
