care<br>professionals will help you get the specific eye care you need, know what questions to ask, and work<br>with your health care provider to determine appropriate solutions that work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optometrists<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Optometrists perform eye exams to check the overall health of your eyes and issue prescriptions for contact lenses or glasses, or low vision devices. The optometrist will perform a number of tests including visual acuity (how well you can see letters\/symbols from a distance and near), your ability to see colour, your depth perception, retinal health, the pressure inside your eyes etc. The optometrist may use eye drops to dilate your pupils to help them detect conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ophthalmologists<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who specializes in eye health and related diseases. Ophthalmologists undergo post-graduate training that qualifies them to treat eye diseases both medically and surgically. Ophthalmologists provide surgical solutions to common eye problems such as cataracts, and monitor eye conditions like glaucoma as well as perform laser corrective surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Opticians<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opticians fit, adjust and dispense prescription and non-prescription eyewear. They do not perform eye exams nor prescribe but can assist with filling your prescription, adjusting glasses, and ordering new\/replacement contact lenses.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a patient, understanding the role and the services offered by each of these three eye care<br \/>\nprofessionals will help you get the
