i guess you have seen your optometrist already, maybe you want to talk to your family doc for a referral.
Some ophthalmologists do not take walk in patients.

You can try Dr Simon Lam in New West or Dr Edward Yu in Bby.
I suggest you go see two different docs for a second opinion before making any important decision.

But act fast!

According to my experience, Dr. Edward Yu is a good doctor but I am not sure he will take it patient without family doctor's referral. He is running a very busy clinic. His receptionist speaks Cantonese.

Dr. Edward Yu
Address
4885 Kingsway Ave suite 210

most visual damage is permanent.
If you think seeing a regular GP is expensive, i dont know how you justify the cost of seeing specialists. Plus I suspect you might need a surgery.

Ed Yu runs his practice like running a factory, he has a MSc in management science.

if its some serious eye problem it would had happen in days
but since i have it for 3 months already... so...

so i guess all i can do is wait
