I live in Canada and I’ve gone to the emergency room for a pretty mild eyelid infection before because I wanted to be sure it wasn’t cellulitis and couldn’t get in at the walk in clinic because I work nights and you have to go really early in the morning (appointments at my family doctor typically take like 2-3 weeks at least).
