Our optometrists are properly trained to assess children’s vision and eye health, even at a very young age. This exam allows us to determine if the child has strabismus (uneven fixation points), amblyopia (lazy eye), or if he or she needs glasses.

Please note that due to the Covid-19 pandemic, you must obtain an appointment in order to be received at our offices in Buckingham and Gatineau.
Whether for an examination, an adjustment, a choice of a frame or the purchase of products, the appointment will be required in order to better control the number of people inside and thus respect the standards established by public health and the Government of Quebec.
We work hard to protect your health. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to seeing you soon.
