Occupational Vision Programs

Occupational Vision Programs provide Canadian workers with corrective safety eyewear to the highest standards. The programs include services that design, verify and fit safety eyewear to meet the functional requirements of the workplace.

In addition, workers have access to comprehensive vision care services that prevent, detect, manage and treat vision problems. During an eye exam, the optometrist can provide a range of services such as writing a safety eyewear prescription, detecting job-related eye strain (e.g., computer vision syndrome), managing age-related vision changes (e.g., presbyopia), and offering advice on vision-related workplace safety.
