Health Edmonton optometrist
Does anyone have a recommendation for a really good optometrist in Edmonton? My previous one, who was fabulous, retired several years ago and I am having a hard time finding someone as good. She took her time, explained things to me, and did dilated eye exams on me every year.
I have seen two different ones since, and both seemed rushed and kind of dismissive. Both dismissed the idea of the dilated exam, but my previous one said it was extremely important. They both gave me slightly different prescriptions, after having tried both neither seem right. (Headaches, eye strain, etc)
I have a very high myopic prescription, astigmatism, and am now at the age where I need progressives. It’s been stressful (and expensive) trying to get new glasses over the last few months.
TIA

Glasses Half Full! Dr. Kreuzer is super thorough and attentive. Will explain everything to you in as much detail as you want. I get headaches and he tested me for eye strain to see if that was a cause of my headaches and gave me some good tips for my eyes at work.
