Our Mission, Your Vision
At Scarborough Eye Care, it’s our mission to provide compassionate and personalized eye care for every patient. We provide patients with the information they need to involve them in maintaining their health, and pride ourselves on providing the right amount of time and attention for each visit.
We maintain the highest standard of service, education, and technology to protect your eyes and keep them healthy for life.
Low vision is the term used to describe reduced eyesight that cannot be fully corrected with eyeglasses or medical treatment, and affects your ability to do everyday tasks such as reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Common causes of low vision include eye diseases such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and retinitis pigmentosa. Less commonly, it is caused by an eye or brain injury.
The goal of low vision rehabilitation is to give you the necessary training, support and low vision aids to maximize your remaining vision and regain personal independence. Although your vision cannot be restored, you can live a full and independent life with the right tools that meet your needs and lifestyle.
Learn how we can maximize your remaining vision and regain personal independence.
