Lisa ( who I later found out was the Clinic Manager ) somehow saw me in distress ,got me in quickly ,and ,my issue was resolved ! Dr Di Marco is brilliant, "thorough" , and so calming to talk to ..

Adrian literally stopped what he was working on when I sat down at his desk, and happily helped me with my contact lenses and selecting new glasses. The selection of frames ranges from the ordinary to the more creative and fun looks, so there is something for everyone. Did I mention that there is customer parking behind their building, so no need to scramble for parking on Yonge street. This business has it all!

The interior of the second location is bright, clean and polished. The "optometry" equipment used is modern. Everything blew me away when I first visited. I receive quality eye care service every time I visit. Dr. Patel and his team (Kevin and the ladies whose names I cannot recall) provide top notch eyecare service. Dr. Patel is personable, knowledgeable, and patient. Any questions I have regarding my eyes Dr. Patel gladly answers in a way that I can understand and, in some cases, use the information to make informative decisions. Also, when there was an issue with my frames, Kevin took care of me. I always have a good time visiting Dr. Patel and his team for my annual eye exams and optical needs. Tip: Free parking along the side streets.

I'll definitely be seeing them again next year, as I've already made my appointment.

I visited Doctor Vyas this summer due to a stye that had not gone away for months. He prescribed me…read moreoral antibiotics, that I was on 4x a day for 10 days. This felt very extreme. I was very hesitant because oral antibiotics affect the body in many ways, and affected my daily life at the time I was taking them. However, with my little knowledge, I trusted him. My issue did not go away. I was told later on by an ophthalmologist that I should have never been prescribed an oral antibiotic for a stye. I wish I would have known that these type of doctors are NOT ophthalmologists and are not specialized to deal with these issues. I do not recommend and please note if you are ever dealing with this issue.

Spadina Optometry has done some great pivoting their business model. Enjoy the clichés. I was almost out of contacts. Pretty scary during this uncertain time. I need them. My glasses are wobbly, and can't be used to exercise (2 metres from others) or look cute in video calls. Boo. Luckily, SO has been extremely *nimble* and switched to email orders. They have my 'script on file, and I emailed and paid via transfer. My contacts arrived within two days. Brilliant.

My regular optometrist that I have been seeing for years is located at Markville Shopping Centre…read more Due to ongoing issues between Ontario Health and optometrists, eye exams aren't available. Bummer. I tend to see my optometrist in December every two years. What now? I did a search and found Unionville Optometry. It's a bit closer to me. I sent an e-mail asking whether there were any appointments available for this week. Twenty minutes later, I got a response and there was an appointment after work on Thursday. It was perfect. You need to do a pre-screening questionnaire before you show up at the place. The questions range from what your existing medical conditions are, to whether you have ever had COVID-19. You are then given a list of points about what will happen when you arrive at the clinic. A lot of them didn't happen, such as getting my temperature checked. The short, accurate version is the following: - Arrive at the clinic, and either call or text the clinic that you have arrived. I did the former. The woman on the other end indicated to approach the door in five minutes and someone will let me in. - When you are let in, you are asked to wash your hands at the sink by the entrance. Soap and paper towel are available. You do not need to sanitize your hands. I had a nice technician who let me in. She looked at my car and commented on how nice the blue colour was. It was nice to hear. She then led me to a bunch of different machines to test various aspects of my vision and eyes, from pressing a button whenever you see a light flash somewhere, to getting a puff of air to test each eye's pressure. I also had photos of my eyes taken. After all tests were done, she asked me to take a seat in a designated waiting area and Dr. Mark would come see me. This clinic is a family-run business. The family name is Innamorato. My guess is that spelling and perhaps pronunciation can be pain points, so everyone calls the doctors by Dr, followed by their first names. I like simplicity. Dr. Mark was friendly and thorough. We analyzed my sight with my existing glasses versus what looked better to me. He was understanding and I appreciated his explanations that weren't completely medical speak in nature. He also has a sense of humour. He asked who my usual optometrist was. I said her first and last names. He started singing Ricky Martin's "Living La Vida Loca," which cracked us both up. I didn't realize that her first and last names do sound like La Vida Loca... haha! I paid at the front desk. When you do the pre-assessment, you are asked to enter a credit card, but no charges would be made to it. My guess is that if you don't show up, a $75 charge for not cancelling within 48 hours occurs on your card. The eye exam here is more than what I typically pay at my regular optometrist's office. The eye exam is more detailed and comprehensive. I am okay with it, considering my track record for a weird eye issue that I had a few years ago. You then add on how much it is without OHIP and it looks expensive. Luckily, I have health insurance with my employer, so I'm covered for a good chunk of this cost. I paid with my debit card. The transaction was smooth. I got my receipts and prescriptions from the woman. They were clearly printed out. I asked whether I had the code for this service provider on the receipt, so I could file my insurance claim. She wrote it down for me. Remember to ask for it, which will make your claim easy to file. I filed my claim online after I had dinner. It went well. I got reimbursed today. Direct deposit is awesome! I had an excellent experience and felt comfortable. If my regular optometrist is still closed when I need my next eye exam, I'd return to Unionville Optometry without any hesitation. This clinic is located on the south side of Highway 7, next to Midas. There is plenty of parking and the signage is so brightly lit that you truly can't miss it on a dark evening. (462)

The lenses I purchased from Unionville Optometry are of low quality, even though the establishment…read morecharges high quality prices. They scratch easily. I am a senior and have had a lot of experience with prescription lenses over my lifetime. The lenses I have purchased in the past from other similar establishments have lasted for years and I have never had any issues with scratches or otherwise. The lenses I bought from Unionville Optometry lasted 7 months, despite the fact that I took good care of them because they were expensive. I was told by Unionville Optometry that the scratches were my fault Given the care I took with my glasses, I do not accept this. The manufacturer's warranty is limited to 3 months. The optician refused to assist in any way. I do not ordinarily purchase my lenses from Unionville Optometry. I only did so this one time because my optometrist, who works there, suggested that I get my lenses there. I would not recommend purchasing prescription lenses at this establishment.

I personally didn't have time to browse the shop for glasses but they do provide 30 minutes after your exam to look and try frames.

Booked an appointment for my teenage son to have eye exam at Bailey Nelson Queen East in Toronto…read more After the exam yesterday the doctor did not want to speak with me. I actually tried to speak with her. I thought that was odd. The manager of the store relayed the message that my son could benefit from Blue Light glasses. We then went through the process of selecting those. Fast forward to this afternoon. The store manager calls, leaves a voicemail, telling me that they have made a referral and that my 15 year old knows about it. He didn't. I call back and ask what's up. I'm told that the doctor, in an abundance of caution, is concerned enough to refer my son to another level of clinic to assess the issue that he brought to their attention. The manager called because she felt the doctor behaved oddly by not speaking to me. While I'm happy for the referral, I am a bit disappointed that, between the doctor and the store manager, I was expected to hear of the doctor's concern via a teenage boy. Anyway, all of this is to say you may want to consider a different shop. In my experience optometrists elsewhere do actually speak with parents of kids about what is necessary to keep the kids healthy. This place sort of does that, though you may have to wait 24 hours and hope that the manager comes to feel a bit off about the doctor to the point of calling to let you know herself
