Safeguard Your Vision With Regular Eye Exams
You want your eyes to feel comfortable at all times. However, eye health goes much deeper than how well you see or how your eyes feel. Eye diseases and conditions can develop at any point in your life, and the most effective way to safeguard your vision is by going for regular eye exams.
At Brighton Eyecare, we provide comprehensive eye exams that evaluate your visual acuity, your eye function, and your overall eye health. Whether you are simply due for your routine eye exam or you’re dealing with discomfort or vision changes, we’re here to assist you.
Book your next eye exam in Saskatoon today.
What to Expect From an Eye Exam
We work hard to keep your eye exams as convenient and comfortable as possible. During the exam, we will determine how well you see up close, at a distance, and everywhere in between. We use tried-and-true tools like eye charts and phoropters, and we use a range of diagnostic tools to determine your eye’s health.
You will be a part of the exam every step of the way. You will know which technology we use and how, and at the end of the exam, you’ll have an in-depth understanding of your eye health.
Why Are Eye Exams Important?
Your eyes are continually changing and developing, which may affect your vision and the need for glasses, contacts, or medications. In addition, eye diseases and other serious conditions can develop without you even knowing.
We assess for common conditions, such as dry eye, digital eye strain, and more serious issues like glaucoma, cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration.
To help make sure your eyes are protected, make sure you are going for regular eye exams.
We Help Make Eye Care Simple
In addition to providing comprehensive, compassionate care, we strive to make your experience with our Luminus Vision Group clinic as simple and seamless as possible. No matter which location you visit, all the Luminus clinics remain connected, sharing your health information through our secure database so every visit feels familiar and seamless.
We recommend attending an eye exam at least every 1–2 years. This allows us to stay up-to-date on your eye health, monitor any changes to your eyes or prescription, and make sure your glasses or contact lenses continue to give you clear and precise vision.

Ongoing Eye Care and When to Visit
We want your vision to stay sharp and your eyes healthy between regular exams. While most insurance plans cover routine eye exams every 2 years, your eyes can change more frequently. If you notice any changes in your vision or have concerns at any time, please contact us—we’re here to help.
We also see patients for specific concerns, such as:
- Blurry near or distance vision
- Eye strain, especially when reading or using a computer
- Dry or irritated eyes
Saskatchewan Health Authority covers eye exams for various urgent or specialized eye health concerns, including eye infections, allergic reactions, flashes or floaters in your vision, corneal scratches, or sudden vision loss.
As well, certain groups qualify for yearly eye exams through the Saskatchewan Health Authority:
- Children under 18 years old
- People with diabetes (regardless of treatment)
Lastly, we are always happy to clean and adjust your glasses between visits to make sure your eyewear is comfortable and effective.

We encourage you to book a comprehensive eye exam with our optometrists to receive a complete evaluation beyond simple reading charts.
Sudden visual changes, such as new floaters, flashes of light, or blurred spots, warrant immediate evaluation by an optometrist to protect your vision. If you experience any concerning visual shifts, please contact Brighton Eyecare right away or book a comprehensive eye exam for prompt care.
