Knowing when to see an eye doctor, how to find an eye doctor, and what care pathways exist can help patients find the right provider at the right time. We outline the different roles of eye care providers and demonstrate how collaboration between optometrists and ophthalmologists allows us to provide excellent care to patients in the Waterloo Region.
We are proud to announce the start of centralized referral for cataract surgery in the Waterloo Region. All cataract surgeons are involved in the centralized referral program and any new non-urgent cataract referrals will be redirected to central intake. All patients need a referral from an optometrist or a primary care provider to see an ophthalmologist.
