At IRIS Kitsilano, we offer something a little different. While we're proud to be part of the respected IRIS network, our West 1st Avenue location operates with the independence, personality, and attentive care of a locally owned clinic. We’ve been serving the community for over two decades, with a dedicated team focused on delivering exceptional eye care in a way that feels genuine, personalized, and refreshingly human. Patients often stop in just to say hello or restock their contact lenses. The sense of familiarity and homey vibes is what sets us apart. The clinic décor may stray from the standard IRIS aesthetic, but it reflects who we are: comfortable, friendly, and thoughtfully local. Our flexible, relationship-driven approach is reflected in everything we stand for.

Our team of experienced optometrists and opticians brings a wealth of knowledge to every appointment. Whether you're here for a detailed eye exam, specialty contact lenses, or guidance in finding the perfect pair of premium glasses for yourself, you can expect care that’s professional, honest, and personalized to your needs. While we’re serious about vision, we’re just as passionate about the lives we lead outside the clinic. You’ll find hikers, foodies, beach lovers, beauty enthusiasts, world travellers, and even the occasional video game fan among us. We bring our personalities into the workplace because we believe eye care should be personal, fun, and compassionate. We approach every interaction with warmth and honesty, and enjoy getting to know our patients beyond just their prescriptions. We’re proud that patients appreciate not only the quality of our care but the way we deliver it, with clarity, sincerity, and a personal touch.

At IRIS Kitsilano, we blend trusted clinical expertise with personal care. This is eye care delivered thoughtfully by people who truly know and care about their patients.
