Comprehensive Eye Exam in Montreal & West-Island
Protect Your Family’s Vision

Protect your vision with personalized eye care from the experienced team at OPTO V Optometrists. With two convenient locations in Pierrefonds (West Island) and Montreal (near Metro Namur), our optometrists provide expert eye care tailored to your unique lifestyle. Our in-depth eye health assessments go beyond a basic vision test. We use cutting-edge diagnostic technology to ensure the long-term health of your eyes.

What to Expect During Your Annual Eye Exam?

While specific tests are tailored to your unique medical history, a comprehensive eye exam at our Pierrefonds or Montreal clinics typically includes the following essential steps:

Visual Acuity & Refraction: We begin by measuring the sharpness of your vision. Our optometrists use precise refraction techniques to determine your exact eyeglass or contact lens prescription, ensuring you leave with the clearest sight possible.

Visual Field Testing: This test determines your "peripheral" or side vision. It is a vital tool for identifying blind spots that could be early indicators of neurological issues or glaucoma.

Cover Test & Binocular Vision: We perform a cover test to check how your eyes work together. This identifies issues like "crossed eyes" (strabismus) or binocular vision problems that can cause headaches and eye strain.

Slit Lamp Examination: Using a high-powered microscope called a slit lamp, our optometrists examine the front structures of your eye, including the cornea, iris, and lens, to detect signs of cataracts or infections.

Tonometry (Eye Pressure Measurement): We measure your internal eye pressure to screen for glaucoma. This is a quick, painless test that is critical for preventing "the silent thief of sight."

OCT or Retinal Imaging: To monitor the health of your retina and optic nerve, we may perform a dilated exam or use cutting-edge diagnostic technology to capture a wide-view image of the back of your eye. This is the best way to detect macular degeneration and diabetic eye disease early.

The Benefits of a Comprehensive Eye Exam

Many people believe they only need to see an optometrist when their vision gets blurry. However, a comprehensive eye exam at our Pierrefonds or Montreal clinics is a vital part of your overall healthcare routine.

Here are the key benefits of booking your annual exam:

1. Detection of "Silent" Eye Diseases

Conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration often have no symptoms in their early stages. Our advanced diagnostic tools, including OCT scans, allow us to detect these issues before permanent vision loss occurs.

2. Insight into Your Overall Health

Your eyes are a window to your body. During a thorough exam, our optometrists can often find early signs of systemic health issues, such as:

High blood pressure (Hypertension)
Diabetes
High cholesterol
Certain autoimmune disorders

3. Relief from Digital Eye Strain & Headaches

If you spend hours on a computer screen, you may experience headaches or dry eyes. A precise refraction ensures your prescription is updated to reduce strain, and we can recommend specialized Blue Light, Anti-Fatigue or Office Lenses.

4. Myopia Management for Children

For our younger patients, regular exams are crucial. Early intervention can slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia), protecting their vision as they grow and helping them succeed in school.

5. Personalized Vision Solutions

A comprehensive exam isn't one-size-fits-all. We tailor our recommendations to your lifestyle—whether you are a frequent driver, a professional athlete, or someone who works primarily on digital screens.
