We Believe Great Eyewear Is the Root of All Happiness

Getting the right prescription for your eyeglasses or contact lenses is an important part of good eye care. But seeing clearly is just one part of your overall eye health. It’s important to have annual eye exams with an optometrist whether or not you wear eyeglasses or contacts, and even if your vision is sharp. The eye care team at Apex Optometry in Penticton, BC believes in looking at the big picture when it comes to your eye health, so we take the time to get to know you, your eye care history and your vision needs. Dr. Robert Zak knows that getting the right prescription involves balancing several factors, including clear eyesight, visual efficiency and your ability to process visual information seamlessly.

Whether you need a routine eye examination, an eyeglasses fitting or treatment for eye disease (such as dry eyes, glaucoma or macular degeneration) or special contact lens fittings, our optometrist will provide you with the best care, advice, options and follow up. With an optometry practice in Penticton, Apex Optometry has been serving patients from Penticton, Summerland, Oliver, Osoyoos, and Keremeos for over 30 years.

Macular Degeneration

There is currently no cure for macular degeneration. Macular degeneration treatment options exist that can slow the progress of the disease or improve vision based on the type of macular degeneration you are experiencing.

Dry Eye Treatment

Dry eye syndrome (DES or dry eye) is a chronic lack of sufficient lubrication and moisture on the surface of the eye. Its consequences range from minor irritation to the inability to wear contact lenses and an increased risk of corneal inflammation and eye infections.

Dry eye syndrome has several causes. It occurs:

As a part of the natural aging process, especially among women over age 40.
As a side effect of many medications, such as antihistamines, antidepressants, certain blood pressure medicines, Parkinson’s medications and birth control pills.
Because you live in a dry, dusty or windy climate with low humidity.
