Christine Elliott I have Retinitis Pigmentosa. Thanks to ongoing care from my optometrist I remain a functioning member of society. On the off chance you have the fortune to not require such care, please know, there are many whose lives depend on it. #SaveEyeCare #onpoli #DougFord

Ontario PC Party fix our eye care! Christine Elliott needs to sincerely negotiate with Ontario Association Of Optometrists with a commitment to restore primary eye care to millions of people in #Ontario. #saveeyecare #onpoli

@PaulaRo00272946 @SkipPhotog Christine Elliott The only difference is that now she is the Minister responsible and her lack of collaboration is on display. She isn't listening. Or maybe it's time for her eye check, so she can see the value they bring to healthcare, education and by association, to the economy. #SaveEyeCare

@mlmiller273 Anju Clement John Fraser Tylerius Kirk 🇨🇦👀🩺 Doug Ford Ontario Association Of Optometrists Yes, please! To have #SaveEyeCare would be an amazing Christmas present. But don't wait, I'm already starting to make arrangements to cross the border for my son's appointment and to scratch that off my pre-Christmas to-do list would be even better.

#BREAKING - A breakthrough in the dispute between the province and optometrists. The Ontario Association of Optometrists and the Ministry of Health have agreed to enter formal negotiations & the OAO is pausing its job action as of tomorrow.

OAO: "The OAO expects robust talks to begin immediately, noting that the swift resolution of this issue is a top priority for both optometrists and their patients"

BREAKING: OHIP eligible eye exams resume. Pleased to see the Ontario government & the Ontario Association Of Optometrists finally seeing Eye to Eye! ⁦Christine Elliott⁩ Statement from Minister Elliott on Ongoing Negotiations with the Ontario Association of Optometrists news.ontario.ca/en/statement/1…

Services will be back for seniors, youth and recipients of OHIP covered eyecare starting tomorrow. I will be using my voice in the Legislature to tell the Premier to bargain in good faith, to stay at the table and ensure these services won't be lost again #onpoli #eyecareontario

Let's resume being the mild mannered Optometrists we were. Be nice. Though this may be just a 'pause' if negotiations don't go well. #SaveEyeCare #onpoli #Ontario #Toronto #Canada #DougFord

@ChrisGloverMPP Christine Elliott Ontario Association Of Optometrists Ontario Ministry of Health Thank you @ChrisGloverMPP for helping to get this closer to a resolution and for helping to put a 'pause' on Optometry job action. Let's hope this doesn't need to start up again. #SaveEyeCare #onpoli #Ontario #Toronto #Canada

All we can say is…this has been far too long a wait for many #olderpeople and kids. It’s about time.. and eye health! #ontario #SaveEyeCare CBC Toronto

GREAT NEWS today for patients left without eye care! Ontario Association Of Optometrists are trusting the gov's promise that a FAIR deal is waitin to end their job action. I'll say it again. Doug Ford & Christine Elliott make it a table worth being at! We CAN'T end up here again. #SaveEyeCare
