Why Choose Our Eye Care Clinic in Vancouver, BC?

Patients choose our Vancouver clinic for five reasons: no-dilation comprehensive exams with the Optos Monaco (Optomap + OCT); one of Vancouver’s most advanced dry eye clinics (meibography, IPL, radiofrequency); complete kids’ myopia control; same-day glasses from our in-house edging lab, often in under an hour; and a 5.0-star Google rating built on unhurried, personal care.

Technology Most Vancouver Clinics Don’t Have

We provide technologically advanced comprehensive eye care using state-of-the-art equipment throughout the clinic — from computerized electronic medical records accessible in every room, to automated pre-testing with auto-refraction and keratometry, to no-touch intraocular pressure measurement that replaces the dreaded “puff test” with something far more comfortable. Digital acuity charts adapt to every patient, with letters, numbers or pictures for children who can’t read yet.

Optos Monaco: Ultra-Widefield Optomap + OCT in One Scan

The Optos Monaco captures a 200-degree Optomap image of your retina and a high-resolution OCT cross-section in a single, non-invasive scan. That means we detect and monitor diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal tears and glaucoma — often before symptoms arise — without dilation drops for most patients. You see your own retina on screen, and your doctor walks you through exactly what the images show. It’s the centrepiece of every comprehensive exam.

Virtual-Reality Visual Fields for Glaucoma

For patients with glaucoma or at risk of it, our virtual-reality visual field testing replaces the traditional bowl test with a comfortable headset — faster, more accurate, and easy to repeat as often as glaucoma monitoring demands.

A True Dry Eye Suite

Our Mediworks Firefly WDR digital slit lamp with integrated meibography photographs the meibomian glands inside your eyelids, while anterior segment photography documents the cornea and ocular surface in high definition. Diagnosis then flows straight into treatment: InMode Lumecca IPL and Forma-i radiofrequency, gland expression and personalized therapy plans — with follow-up imaging that shows your progress objectively.

Same-Day Glasses From Our In-House Lab

Our in-office edging system cuts and fits many single-vision prescriptions in less than an hour. Choose your frames from our curated designer collection, enjoy a tea or espresso in the lounge, and walk out wearing your new glasses the same day.

Care Measured in Outcomes, Not Minutes

Technology matters, but it’s how we use it that patients remember. Appointments are booked longer than typical retail-chain exams because thorough medicine takes time. Your doctor reviews your images with you, explains findings in plain language — in English, Cantonese, Mandarin or Korean — and builds a plan, whether that’s new lenses, a myopia program for your child, or dry eye therapy with measurable follow-up. Meet our eye doctor to see the training behind that approach.

What Our Patients Say

Our 5.0-star Google rating comes from reviews like these — real patients, real visits:

  • “Everyone in the family from kids to grandparents all appreciate her thoroughness and passion for her patients.” — Tommy C.
  • “Great tech to help you get a better eye exam — no dilation drops required. A fantastic selection of frames and lenses as well.” — Artina I.
  • “Dr. Yee also speaks Korean, so whenever I didn’t understand certain medical terms, she explained them in Korean. I highly recommend this clinic!” — Eena Y.

A Patient Experience Designed Around You

Every detail of the clinic is built for comfort: a calm, modern space, a lounge with tea and Nespresso while your glasses are edged, digital records that follow you to any exam room, and appointment reminders by the channel you prefer. Kids get picture-based charts and patience; seniors get time and clear explanations; and everyone gets their questions answered before they leave. Read more about the patient experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

We direct-bill most major BC extended health plans, including Pacific Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife, Green Shield Canada, Desjardins, Equitable Life and iA Financial Group. MSP is accepted for eligible services such as children’s exams and medical visits.

Often, yes. Our in-house edging lab finishes many single-vision prescriptions the same day — frequently within an hour. Complex lenses and specialty coatings take longer; we confirm timing when you order.

Of course. There’s never pressure to purchase eyewear — many patients come specifically for our no-dilation comprehensive exams, dry eye care or second opinions.

Longer appointments, doctor-led care, and imaging technology — Optomap, OCT, VR visual fields, meibography — that most retail locations don’t have. You leave with your eyes imaged, explained and documented, not just a prescription slip.

Yes — free on-site parking at 612 West 58th Avenue, plus easy access from the Canada Line for transit users. It’s one more reason South Vancouver families make us their neighbourhood clinic.
