A Pointe-Claire institution for over 35 years, the Opto-Réseau Donnelly Optical clinic is a family-run clinic that aims to provide exceptional service.
A graduate of the Université de Montreal’s optometry program in 1976, Dr. James Donnelly opened his own practice in Montreal’s West Island 35 years ago. He has built his practice around the needs of his patients and their families, many of whom have come for their annual eye exams since the beginning. Dr. Donnelly is dedicated to offering patients a personalised, professional service. He instils this passion in two of his sons who are opticians on-staff.Continuing the tradition of the family business, his two sons, Shawn and Steffan, are now co-owners.
Shawn Donnelly graduated with honours from the opticianry program at Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario in 2000, as well as Steffan Donnelly in 2011. In addition to their Pointe-Claire Clinic, Shawn and Steffan are in charge of a mobile clinic In the Nunavik region.
A general eye exam will take into account the patient’s ocular health history. It will also include a refraction test (to determine the prescription required), a test to measure the focusing and coordination abilities of the eyes, an intraocular pressure test (when required), a peripheral visual field test (if necessary), and an assessment of the patient’s general eye health.
This type of eye exam will allow your eyecare professional to diagnose any problems and issue suitable recommendations.
Additional tests may be required to screen and monitor for certain eye conditions. These may include tests for dry eye syndrome, retinal imaging, and OCT (optical coherence tomography).
Our optometrists are trained to detect eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy and more.
We are also able to monitor your case. Your eye care professional can carry out pre- and post-surgery follow-ups, as well as monitor ocular manifestations of systemic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and multiple sclerosis.
Eye exams specifically designed for contact lenses users are provided at Opto-Reseau. We can fit flexible, rigid (gas permeable), toric, multifocal and coloured lenses.
If you have an accident involving your eyes or notice an unexplained change in vision, your Opto-Réseau optometrist can assess your condition, prescribe the appropriate treatment, and refer you to the right resources, with an appointment or on our availabilities.
Our clinic includes a cutting, finishing and repair laboratory on site to better serve you, in addition to providing you with a fast and personalized service. Your glasses will be cut with the greatest precision for your complete satisfaction.
Explore our wide selection of frames for every style! Whether you’re looking for prescription or sunglasses, our expert advisors will help you pick a pair of personalized frames that are adapted to the face of your shape, your complexion, your hair colour, etc.
If you have itchy, burning or flowing eyes, you may suffer from dry eye. Dry eye is a chronic, progressive disease that is very common and requires the expertise of an eye care professional to guide you in your treatment. It is said that the eye is dry when the quantity or quality of a person's tears is insufficient, which causes discomfort.
Our eye care professionals can not only diagnose dry eye, but also build an optimal treatment plan to help improve your quality of life and defeat this degenerative disease. Make an appointment with one of our professionals for personalized advice to better control your condition.
A visual field is basically how far your eye can see in any direction without moving. Our cutting-edge tools allow us to precisely measure your peripheral and central vision. These tests help us detect certain conditions such as diabetes, glaucoma, stroke, and multiple sclerosis. Our basic eye exam includes a basic visual field test but your optometrist might recommend specialized tests or regular follow-ups depending on your health condition and visual impairments. The SAAQ might also require you to undergo a specific vision test as part of a visual assessment.
A photo of the various structures of the retina can be taken using a retinal camera allowing a more accurate examination of the fundus. This technology allows the detection of several diseases of the eye, such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma and high blood pressure, to name just a few. It can also detect diseases that still have no symptoms.
The test requires only a few minutes of your time and does not require dilation in 90% of cases (drops that confuse vision). This test is therefore convenient and allows your eye care professional to monitor your eye health. The photos provide a basis for comparison between appointments to assess the evolution of the eyes or the effectiveness of treatments, if any.
Retinal imaging with ultra-wide field scanning laser (UWF ™) technology provides a fundus photograph that helps your optometrist diagnose, analyze, document, and track eye conditions that may be present in the periphery of your retina.
Traditional imaging of the retina in a small, or even wide, field allows only 10 to 100⁰ of the retina to be captured in a single image. Our clinic is equipped with an ultra-large field retinal imaging to capture 82% or 200⁰ of the retina, in a single image. The function of multiple shots and self-assembly of the optomap allows to visualize up to 95% or 225⁰ of the retina, leaving nothing to chance.
If you think about correcting your vision with laser refractive surgery, ask our eye care professionals if you are a good candidate. Our team of optometrists is able to do preoperative assessments to determine if you are a good candidate for surgery. Your professional will be able to advise you about the solution best suited to your situation according to your needs and available technologies.
