Despite a majority of Canadians reporting that they have been for an eye exam in the last year, research commissioned by the Canadian Association of Optometrists (CAO) points to an alarming incidence of eye disease among children and seniors.

The Canadian Association of Optometrists (CAO) encourages all Canadians to “GetEyewise” and take advantage of the opportunity Vision Health Month provides to see their optometrist for a comprehensive eye exam so that their loved ones don’t “fade to black”
