Our Story

What can we share about us? We founded our independent optical store in 1980, and have been a fixture in the neighbourhood for decades. This also means that we know glasses and contact lenses really well.

We’re also proud to be a Canadian-owned and operated business. As such, we make a point of supporting other local, Canadian suppliers.

As a small, local business, we care about providing the best service and expertise possible.  In fact, we specialize in a number of unique and difficult-to-fit situations:

  • High astigmatism requiring bitoric lenses

  • Strabismus (lazy eye) requiring specialized glasses

  • Presbyopia requiring bifocals or trifocals for glasses or contact lenses

  • Keratoconus requiring gas-permeable haptic / scleral contact lenses

  • Prescription swimming goggles

We’ve got you covered.

Another great thing about our store? We do everything in-house. Our Optometrists can take care of your eye exam, and Chiu, our resident Optician, will custom make your glasses in our on-site laboratory. He’ll even help fit your glasses and contact lenses. Already have a prescription? We’ll gladly help you fill it.

Moreover, we are a licensed retailer for many popular brands of frames and sunglasses, including:

  • Ray Band®

  • Oakley®

  • Prada®

  • Versace®

  • Coach®

  • Dolce & Gabbana®

  • Michael Kors®

  • DKNY®

  • Tory Burch®

  • Polo Ralph Lauren®

  • Armani®

  • Maui Jim®

  • Litech®

  • Nomad®

  • OGA®

And countless more. With over 1,400 different styles available for you to choose from, we’re bound to have something that suits your unique needs.
