Come visit us in store to learn about prices and special promotions. The prices of our contacts are the same in store as they are online, however our frames and lenses retail prices and promotions may vary.

If we have your contacts in stock, you can pick them up on the same day at our For Eyes by Clearly Robson St location. You’ll need to bring a valid contact lens prescription and show it to the team.  
 
Glasses orders take a little longer, as we have to create your custom lenses and fit them into your chosen frames. We can arrange to ship your glasses directly to you at an additional cost, or you can pick them up in-store free of charge. Typically, glasses orders take about 2 weeks.

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who specializes in eye surgeries. An optometrist, also known as an eye doctor, is your primary eye care practitioner for routine vision care: full eye exams and vision tests. It’s best to see an optometrist if you need a new glasses or contact lens prescription.  

Our local optometrists can also treat common eye conditions, such as dry eyes, glaucoma, and eye infections, and provide eye care for pre- and post-eye surgery.

Our optometrists will perform a series of tests in a comprehensive eye exam:

• Refractive issues: nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), astigmatism, or presbyopia
• Overall perception: colour vision, depth perception, and eye coordination
• Assessment of vision loss: “lazy eye” (amblyopia), glaucoma, diabetes, macular degeneration, cataracts, and keratoconus
• Assessment of other health conditions: vascular diseases, neurological diseases, inflammatory diseases, and certain cancers

A regular eye exam every one to two years can help ensure your eyes and overall health are healthy.

On the day of your appointment for an eye exam or routine eye checkup with our optometrists, please bring with you:

• A list of any medications that you currently use
• All pairs of glasses that you currently use
• If you are a contact lens wearer, please wear your glasses to the appointment (if available), and bring your contact lens boxes/foils
• Your provincial health card

Depending on your optometrist assessment, contact lenses may be a good fit if you have nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, or presbyopia. Since contacts are medical devices and they come in different shapes, sizes, and materials, it’s best to see what your eye doctor recommends. Book an eye exam today for a valid contact lens prescription and initial contact lens fitting. 

Depending on your optometrist assessment, toric contact lenses may be a good fit if you have astigmatism. These lenses are designed with the proper shape and prescription power to correct blurry vision caused by astigmatism and allow for more object focus, which can’t be addressed by regular contacts. Book an eye exam today for a valid contact lens prescription and initial contact lens fitting.

A full eye exam is a thorough assessment of your vision quality and eye health. If you want to wear contact lenses for the first time or if you need a new prescription, you’ll need a contact lens exam.  

It includes a contact lens fitting to ensure ideal measurements for the best lens fit. If you need a new glasses prescription, a full eye exam is sufficient. Learn about the differences between contact lens and glasses prescriptions.
