Purchased glasses from here. Best prices on Salt frames I found in Toronto, the office was very helpful in helping me decide on frame shapes/colors and did a good job adjusting the frame to fit my face afterwards.

Signed up as a new patient on a whim. Dr. Hing was excellent and very knowledgeable. State of the art optical equipment. I would definitely return. No aggressive upselling of glasses, contrary to other posts.

I love this gang. Super pro. Takes care of every part of your eye health and they're super friendly. Alex, one of their inhouse techs is masterful and does AMAZING work. I recently got some replacement lenses and Alex was able to bring my frames back to perfect condition again even though I borked them hard 🙂 Definitely recommend these fine people!

Family Eye Care

Ask Our Doctors a Question...

What is the examination like to determine if someone has dry eyes?

A large part of the examination is finding out what the patient is experiencing and determining the type of dry eye causing the symptoms. We examine the surface of the eye under a microscope to look at the quantity and the quality of the tear film. Additionally, we examine the eyelids and the glands inside the eyelids to insure they are healthy. More about Dry Eyes...

What are the typical treatments for dry eyes?

There are a wide range of treatments ranging from over the counter products to specialty laser procedures. Many times using artificial tears and vitamin supplements can help boost the tear film. There are prescription eye drops that can aid in tear production as well as laser procedures for patients with more advanced dry eye. More about Dry Eyes...

Are there any recommendations to help people avoid dry eye?

Of course – stay hydrated and making sure you consume enough water each day. Additionally, take breaks from your computer and smart phone. I recommend the 20/20/20 Rule – take a 20 second break every 20 minutes and look 20 feet away and blink your eyes. Finally, wearing sunglasses is critical to protecting the surface of the eye and the eyelids from UV exposure. More about Dry Eyes...
