We realize that eye emergencies can happen anytime, when least expected. We strive to provide the highest quality of urgent eye care in a comfortable, professional, and caring atmosphere. As the premier hospital for Emergency Eye Care Toronto, we utilize the latest diagnostic equipment combined with the expertise of board-certified optometrists and specialists to ensure timely treatment to protect vision and maintain optimal eye health for every patient.
Emergency eye care is the immediate assessment and management of sudden loss of vision, injuries, or infections that cannot wait for an appointment. Other visits are usually scheduled, while in emergency cases, an assessment must be done quickly to avoid complications that may lead to permanent vision loss. At our Toronto emergency eye care clinic, the staff is trained to provide diagnoses and treatments regarding urgent conditions right on the spot, offering you the right care at the right time.
Our dedicated team assesses and treats the entire gamut of emergent conditions, including corneal scratches and abrasions, retinal tears or detachment, infectious eye conditions such as conjunctivitis or keratitis, glaucoma attacks with sudden pressure buildup, chemical and thermal eye burns, severe allergic reactions around or inside the eyes, and trauma related to sports, accidents, or workplace injuries. If advanced surgical intervention becomes necessary, we interface with trusted ophthalmologists to maintain continuity of care and provide follow-up.
