Quality Frames &
Lenses For the
Whole Family

Need a specific prescription? No problem. Want frames in a certain shape? We’ve got you covered. Shopping within a budget? Don’t worry. We take all your needs into account, providing numerous options to help you see clearly, look great, and feel confident.
Visit our location on Kamloops’ North Shore to find your next favourite pair of glasses.
What Sets Our
Glasses Apart?
We carry a broad range of quality frames and lenses from brands you know and love. Our skilled opticians and stylists have an eye for fashion and can help you pick the right frames for your personal style, vision, and budget.
We stand by our glasses and offer a 1-time redo and prescription check if your new glasses don’t fit your visual needs and comfort.
Customize Your Lenses
We can customize your lenses to your needs. We can tint your lenses in any shade you prefer, offering enhanced contrast and vision depending on your needs. Our lenses also have optional anti-reflective and anti–stratch coatings to reduce glare and prevent wear and tear.
Superflex
Affordable Eyewear
Our Superflex package provides an affordable eyewear solution. The Superflex package includes frames starting from $1 with the purchase of prescription lenses. If you’re interested in this offer, let us know, and we’ll direct you to our display of eligible frames.
Celebrating
Indigenous Art
We’re happy to showcase Indigenous designer lines, including AYA Eyewear and Ió:ken Designs, Inc. These brands collaborate with Indigenous artists to create eye-catching eyewear for all. Each pair of frames purchased supports Indigenous artists, and both eyewear lines give back to Indigenous organizations across North America.
Protect Your Eyes on the Job
Many eye emergencies, such as those caused by accidents or injuries, can be prevented through proper risk management and personal protective equipment (PPE).
We provide a range of safety glasses (both safety-stamped and non-stamped) in prescription and non-prescription options to keep your vision clear and eyes protected while at work.
If you require safety glasses or need to update your prescription, let us know. We can discuss our options and let you try on some different styles to find the right fit.
Specialty Eyewear Solutions
Beyond our custom lens options, we also offer other specialty frames and glasses to fit your lifestyle.
We can provide custom eyewear solutions for complex cases, such as pilot lenses, task lenses for artists, lenses designed for tradeworkers, and glasses customized for individuals with disabilities or sensory needs.
This includes clip-on sunglasses or photochromic lenses for easy transitions from indoors to outdoors, as well as eyewear designed specifically for kids.
If you have a particular need for the fit or function of your glasses, discuss it with our team. We’ll do what we can to make sure your new eyewear is designed just for you.
