Restasis in Canada?

[grittyeyes]

I am in Canada and my eye doc told me I would be a good candidate for Restasis but that it is not available in Canada. I've read some other posts here from Canadian residents who use Restasis and wonder where they are getting it. Or is my doc wrong when he says we can't get it?

Get them from your Dr.

I am in Vancouver, and my ophthalmologist is giving me Restasis... I have to go to his office every two months and I picked them up for free! But I understand that they are not available in Canadian drug stores *yet*.

I'm just outside of Toronto and I have also been given restasis and there has been no charge. However not every doctor has access to it.

Hey,

I'm in Toronto. I NEED to get Restasis! My eyes are like sandpaper!!!

Where did you go for yours?

I got Restasis from Dr.Alan Slomovic at Toronto Western Hospital 399 Bathurst Street. He's a corneal specialist and I needed a referrral from Dr. Barbara Caffery (Optometrist) 33 Avenue Road in Yorkville.
