Emergency Eye Care

Sudden vision changes, a red eye, injury, flashes, floaters, or pain need prompt guidance. Call Peel Eye Care so our Brampton team can advise the next step.

What to expect

Care built around urgent symptoms and clear next steps.

Eye emergencies can happen suddenly and should not be ignored. If you are experiencing new or sudden vision changes, please call Peel Eye Care right away. We will do our best to arrange a same-day appointment when urgent eye care is needed.

Please call us urgently if you notice:

  • Flashing lights
  • New or sudden floaters
  • A shadow, curtain, or veil in your vision
  • Sudden loss of vision
  • Sudden blurry or distorted vision
  • Eye pain or light sensitivity
  • Red, irritated, or swollen eyes
  • Something stuck in the eye
  • Eye injury or trauma


These symptoms can be signs of a serious eye condition and should be assessed as soon as possible.

Process

A focused urgent-care visit.

Emergency visits are focused on quick triage, careful examination, and clear next steps for sudden symptoms, injuries, irritation, or vision changes.
01

Urgency triage

We quickly assess your symptoms, timing, injury details, and risk signs to prioritize same-day direction whenever appropriate.

02

Focused emergency testing

Targeted testing checks vision stability, eye pressure, eye surface, and structures related to your urgent concern.

03

Doctor treatment review

Your doctor explains the likely cause, immediate treatment, and warning signs to watch for.

04

Follow-up coordination

You leave with a clear follow-up plan and referral coordination if specialist or hospital care is needed.

Our Services

Emergency services we provide

Emergency eye care is for symptoms that feel sudden, painful, unusual, or risky enough that waiting is not wise.

Urgent Attention

What to do

Please call our office immediately if you are having an eye emergency. We will do our best to see you the same day. If we are unable to see you promptly, or if your symptoms are severe, please go to the nearest emergency department. Sudden flashes, floaters, shadows, curtains, or vision loss should never wait.

Dr Zara was simply amazing! She was very professional. She was friendly and engaging with my son to make him comfortable to answer her questions. She understood my concerns for my son, was realistic and most efficient in a plan to manage his eye care. Made the necessary referrals. The office was relaxing, the staff was friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend !
