Independent Eyewear Culture
Take some time to check out our company culture in our galleries. Our business thrives on the energy of our staff and clients. Instead of buying from a faceless corporation, you are supporting a local and independent business in Waterloo Region.

Our Optometrists are on-site, so there is no need to travel to a different clinic for your eye exam.

Our large facility and free parking are perfect to bring your entire family. Children’s eye exams are a way to monitor development and track changes from year to year.
