ohhh we can give you tons of reasons why you should choose Sight N' Steps. Here are the first few reasons for your pleasure:

Reason 1: Eyewear Collection:

Sight N' Step carries exclusive designer brands that other optical places in the area would not have retail rights to. Most of the brands sold at Sight N Steps Pickering are hand crafted by independent designers with ultimate attention to details, fashion and functionality of each pair.

Stereopsis (Depth Perception) Test

Stereopsis is the term used to describe eye teaming that enables normal depth perception and appreciation of the 3-dimensional nature of objects.

In one commonly used stereopsis test, you wear a pair of "3D" glasses and look at a booklet of test patterns. Each pattern has four small circles, and your task is to point out which circle in each pattern looks closer to you than the other three circles. If you can correctly identify the "closer" circle in each pattern, you likely have excellent eye teaming skills that should enable you to experience normal depth perception.

Retinoscopy

Your eye doctor may perform this test early in the eye exam to obtain an approximation of your eyeglass prescription.

In retinoscopy, the room lights will be dimmed and you will be asked to focus on a large target (usually the big "E" on the eye chart). As you stare at the "E," your eye doctor will shine a light at your eye and flip lenses in a machine in front of your eyes. This test estimates which lens powers will best correct your distance vision.
