Finally got my eyes checked last week with Dr. Allyson Tang! The experience at this clinic is…read moreincredible - Dr. Tang is professional, very thorough with the eye examination, great at explaining, truly cares about her patients and wants the best for them. She is very patient and has a cheerful personality which puts a BIG smile on my face during my visit :) I felt very at ease in her hands. Staff was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable - overall, a very pleasant experience, thank you :) During the comprehensive eye examination, I got my pupils dilated. Be sure to bring a pair of sunglasses with you if you're driving - you will be sensitive to lights! Or you can purchase a fashionable pair in their dispensary. The clinic carries a great selection of brand name eyewear and sunglasses! We also did something called Optomap wide-field retinal scan, which carefully and thoroughly checks the inside of the eye for any hidden eye diseases, monitors suspicious areas and changes from year to year, and confirms that everything is healthy! During the visit, I also learned that Dr. Tang specializes in contact lens wear, LASIK consultation, and Ortho-K (AOK) overnight corrective contact lens for myopia control in children. You can also make an appointment online anytime using their real-time schedule - very convenient and easy to use. Thank you Dr. Tang for making sure my eyes are healthy and for giving me advise on how to maintain/improve my current eye health and vision with your expertise. Highly recommend Dr. Allyson Tang as your family optometrist!

Full disclosure, I was not a paying customer during my visit to Dr. Allyson Tangs location,…read morehowever, I did go in with some questions regarding a recently purchased pair of glasses from another store and my experience was so exceptional I can safely say that when it comes time to change over to my next pair of glasses I'm coming back here. I went to a trendy DT Toronto spot for my glasses and while the styles were great and the service was thorough, there was a disconnect with me having to go somewhere else to get my eyes tested before choosing my frames and lenses - a Wal-mart no less. I walked in and wanted to ask about the headaches I'd been having since getting my new glasses and Dr. Allyson took my glasses and ran them under a special machine to examine exactly what my prescription was and what they were comprised of. Thankfully everything checked out and Dr. A explained that because this was a slightly stronger prescription than I was used to that headaches were normal and to be expected. While I was happy with the individual service I received from both the Wal-mart optometrist and the store I purchased my glasses at, I think in future I would prefer to visit Dr. Allyson so I know that every part of my experience is in-house at one location. Check her out!

I recently visited to replace the lenses in my glasses after my old ones got scratched, and since…read moremy prescription had slightly changed, it felt like the right time to update. I still love the frames I got two years ago, so a lens replacement made the most sense. Most places quoted really high prices for my prescription strength, but this spot was quite reasonable. Ramandeep was skilled and great at adjusting my glasses so they fit my face perfectly. I also brought in a couple of other frames that were misaligned that I didn't purchase there, and she fixed them up in a jiffy. One pair had been badly twisted after I accidentally knocked them into a door, and the few optical stores I asked were hesitant to help in case they break it. She managed to adjust them so they're at least wearable again - what a pro! From the brief look they have a nice curated selection of designer frames I see including sunglasses too. Though I didn't look too closely since I wasn't in the market for new eye glasses but they look nice lots of neutral ones I can see wearing. Note the entrance looks small, I accidentally went into the next door convenience store almost.

I had purchased a couple (pricey) sunglasses online; when I received them, the arms were too wide. I googled eyeglass repair shops and this place was among the first couple establishments suggested. Desperate for any form of help and/or advice, I stopped by the place. The owner (sorry, I forgot his name) was so incredibly helpful. As challenging as it was to make adjustments due to the style of the glasses, he was able to figure out a solution. I was so ecstatic!!! Not only did he amend the alignment of the temple arms so I could now wear my glasses, he did so expecting NO COMPENSATION! I was so eternally grateful, I persisted to INSIST he accept my offer of payment. Afterward, he gave me a lovely token (glasses care products). I'm am in AWE of his kindness and professionalism! I cannot recommend Amazing Optical more!!! You will not be disappointed!

I dropped it off and was told that they would try their best to get it done by the next day. When I called the next day, to my horror and not their fault they said that the work was not done because their courier did not pick up my glasses due to the big snow storm we had the previous day. Clarence the owner assured me that he would drive up to Richmond Hill ( where the lab was) and get it done and drop it off to my house that night. And he did at 10pm, 6 hours before my flight! The fact that he went above and beyond my expectations totally blew me away! I offered to pay extra for his gas etc and he vehemently declined.... This is 5 star service in my books!!

It's so refreshing. We both found pairs we loved! Even though I live on the other side of the border now, I still come back here for glasses. That's saying a lot :)

Outstanding service and value!…read more My wife, daughter, and I just finished eye exams at the local Costco and were planning on doing some glasses shopping at some local stores. Our journey first found us at a major chain where the service wasn't very good, prices were poorly explained, and selection was lacking.

The staff patiently took the time to find glasses for all of us while providing excellent advice. The prices and services offered were great as well.

We just had our appointment this past Wednesday with Dr. Thiessen, and he was absolutely amazing! The whole staff is super friendly and easy to talk to. I was worried my son would have a freak out with having lights shined in his eyes but Dr. Thiessen was so awesome with him and was able to keep him calm and happy. He was so informative and easy to talk to and discuss any concerns I have for myself or my son. The nurse helping me pick new glasses was so fun to deal with, gave me so many options and opinons on what looked good. When I was finished and bought my new glasses they told me it would be about 2 weeks... they called me 2 days after my appointment to tell me they are ready! Such a quick turn around!

Grace Family Eye Care is one of the few original tenants of Pacific Mall when it first opened in…read more1997 that is still in business. Pacific Mall is filled with stores selling prescription eyewear and sunglasses but what sets Grace Family Eye Care apart from the other stores is Alvin, Edward and Nigel are all licensed opticians and are very knowledgeable about the correct designs, fits and dispensing of lens for the correction of a person's vision and they are very fair and professional. You will notice that many of their other competitors in the malls, have a huge selection of sunglasses and pretty girls as sales persons but they aren't as knowledgeable about what's the best fit for your eyes and they most likely aren't licensed opticians. If your at Pacific Mall and looking for a good optical store that has staff that is very knowledgeable about the business and are very fair and professional, I recommend Grace Family Eye Care, I have been getting my eyewear needs from them for over 10 years.
