Comprehensive Eye Exam

If you are looking at options for eye exams in Scarborough or Vaughan, U Optical is the right choice! We cater to patients of all ages, from children to seniors. When you visit us for your general eye exam, we do more than assess your eyesight and glasses prescription. Our qualified optometrists will examine your complete eye health. We will check the front surface of your eyes to screen for conditions such as allergies, dry eyes, or contact lens intolerance. We will also look for possible problems such as cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal holes.

Designer and protective eyewear

At U Optical, we understand that it’s necessary to protect your eyes on and off the job. However, we also know that the right sunglasses provide comfort and style. We offer prescription and non-prescription safety eyewear protection that is the highest impact resistance to ensure your eyes are safe without compromising your vision. Not only that, but we now have the latest selection for you to protect yourself with style. Our designer collection features on-trend styles that will leave you feeling as great as you look. We offer prescription and polarized lenses specially designed to avoid glare and bright light. Brands we carry include Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry, and other names celebrated for their distinguished style.

Myopia prevention and control

Myopia is becoming more prevalent in children, and with the current trend, it’s forecasted by the World Health Organization that by 2050, more than half of the world’s population will be myopic. Here at U Optical, we acknowledge the current myopic prevalence in children in Canada and are prepared to combat and control this global epidemic. We do this by identifying the patients at risk and acting promptly to slow the progression of this condition. The onset of myopia can start as early as six years old. Therefore it is essential to identify myopia in individuals as soon as possible. Once identified, our optometrists will discuss different treatment options that are available and best suited for you or your child. Some options include soft contact lenses, eyeglasses with myopia-controlling lenses, and prescription eye drops. Call or contact us online for more information about myopia control and to schedule an eye exam for you or your child.

Specialty contact lens fitting

Certain eye conditions, such as astigmatism, myopia, hyperopia, and keratoconus, can make it difficult to wear contact lenses. At U Optical, we want contact lenses to be an option for everyone, which is why we offer a wide variety of specialty lenses, including:

  • Scleral contact lenses
  • RGP contact lenses
  • Toric contact lenses
  • Multifocal contact lenses

We also stock a large selection of disposable-soft contact lenses available in various popular brands.

Low Vision Assessment and Care

Hundreds of thousands of Canadians have low vision, a condition characterized by a vision level that is 20/70 or worse. Low vision can be corrected with specialty eyewear, medical treatment, or surgery. Unlike complete blindness, those with low vision have a limited degree of useful sight but experience challenges with certain everyday activities such as reading, recognizing faces, and distinguishing colors. At U Optical, we will conduct a comprehensive examination to measure your remaining vision and continue working with you to identify treatment options.
