Emergency Eye Care | Orillia Optometry

What Should I Do if I Have an Eye Emergency?

Your eyes are very sensitive, and even minor injuries can have lifelong consequences. Contact us immediately if you experience an eye emergency while in the Orillia area. We can perform an eye exam to assess the emergency and determine whether it can be treated in our office.

If you’re experiencing a significant eye injury or loss of vision, you may need to visit an emergency room immediately. Please use your best judgment in this situation.

Your eye health is our priority, and we are committed to providing prompt and effective care when you need it most. Contact us today.
