About Summerland Optometry Clinic
Eye care is one of those appointments people put off until a prescription runs out or a screen starts to blur, and having a clinic in town rather than across the lake removes most of the excuse. Summerland Optometry Clinic works from 13225 Victoria Road North in the lower town, among the heritage storefronts of the downtown core.
Optometry covers a good deal more than a new pair of glasses. A full examination checks visual acuity and refraction but also looks at eye health, screening for glaucoma, cataract, macular changes and the ocular signs of diabetes, and clinics differ in the imaging and testing they can perform on site. Contact lens fitting, children's assessments, dry eye management and the handling of urgent problems such as sudden flashes, floaters or an injury are all worth raising when booking on 250-494-9266. Bring current glasses, any contact lens details and a list of medications along to the appointment.
Victoria Road North runs through the heart of the lower town, so the clinic is walkable for downtown residents and a short drive from Prairie Valley, the Giant's Head streets and Trout Creek out along the highway. Appointments can also be arranged online through booking.opto.com. Dilating drops leave vision blurred and light sensitive for a few hours afterwards, which is worth planning around in a valley of bright summer glare, especially before a drive over the bench or around the lake to Penticton.
