Dr. Romie Dhaliwal
Doctor of Optometry
Dr. Dhaliwal has worked closely in clinical and surgical settings with many different Ophthalmologists all over the U.S. She has gained experience in many fields with the diagnosis, management and prevention of eye diseases, vision therapy, cataract pre-operative and post-operative management, glaucoma, and retinal diseases. She has a special interest in treating chronic dry eye and myopia management. With the growing concern of myopia in children, she recently completed her certification in CooperVision’s Brilliant Futures Myopia Management Program. It is the first and only one-day contact lens approved by the FDA, for slowing the progression of myopia in children.
She is a current member of the Canadian Association of Optometrists, the Manitoba Association of Optometrists, Canadian Optometrists in Vision Therapy & Rehabilitation, the Awards Committee, and the Mentor Committee. She has completed her Practical Vision Therapy Accreditation Program with COVT&R. Dr. Dhaliwal helps mentor new grads and enjoys teaching and being observed by students who show a particular interest in optometry.
She enjoys seeing patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly and is passionate about educating her patients about their eye health.
Dr. Dhaliwal is a big advocate of supporting small businesses as you are supporting a dream, and growing your local community! So in her spare time, you can often find her with her husband and kids supporting local restaurants, breweries and markets in Winnipeg. To stay active, she enjoys Peloton workouts, boot camp, and kickboxing. She hopes to return to martial arts and complete her blackbelt in Taekwondo.
She offers comprehensive eye exams in English, Hindi and Punjabi.
