Regular exams catch early signs of glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy before vision loss begins.
Many patients are surprised to find they qualify for annual provincial coverage.
If you aren't covered by OHIP, we seamlessly bill your private insurance (Sun Life, Manulife, etc.) on the spot.
Coverage depends on age and eligible medical conditions. Here is what OHIP typically includes.
19 and under — covered for 1 full eye exam every 12 months.
May be covered every 12 months for conditions such as diabetes, glaucoma, retinal disease, significant cataracts, corneal disease, visual field loss, uveitis, or optic nerve disease.
OCT scans are highly recommended for detecting and monitoring eye disease, but they are not covered by OHIP at this time. Please be prepared for an additional fee if your optometrist recommends OCT imaging as part of your eye health assessment.
We bill many major providers directly, so you can focus on your visit and not the paperwork. Bring your insurance information and our team will check your eligibility.
