While eye dilation oftentimes comes with light stinging, sensitivity to brightness, and blurry vision, dilation is important for early detection of a multitude of eye diseases, as well as rapid-onset and development conditions like retinal detachment.
Conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes, high blood pressure, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), and Age-related Macular Degeneration affect your eyes, and dilated exams widen your pupils so that our optometrists can see your retina, blood vessels, and optic nerve clearly.
We promise the discomfort is worth it! DM us or call us at 604-770-2095 to ask us questions you may have about dilated exams.
