Shopping local is more important now then ever, and the strength of our community depends on it. Much of Vancouver’s North Shore is small to medium sized mom and pop or family run businesses, this makes the culture amazing and the interconnection between all of our spending habits critical to the stability of local families and businesses. When getting an eye exam of course that happens in person, however you have many options to consider when buying contact lenses, glasses and sunglasses online. However, consider going into North Shore Optometry Clinic to try on some frames and chat with the technicians to see if they have what you want.
Finding your new eye wear in this capacity while supporting local businesses will keep money in the community and local families employed. Not to mention they have a wealth of experience, a perfect 5 star review on Google, and would love to help you find the perfect contacts, glasses or sunglasses. In this article we had the opportunity to chat with Dr. Hope Vahidi to get to know her and the business better, check it out below and consider contacting them for your vision needs. They also work with kids and youth.
| How did you get started with North Shore Optometry Clinic and what do you like about operating in North Vancouver? |

| Before operating your Optometry Clinic what were you doing for work or a career? |
| I was employed at Lasikmd in downtown Vancouver providing health care for Lasik surgery patients and gave lectures about eye surgery to various groups and at schools. Before that I was in Philadelphia studying Optometry. |
| Outside of operating your local vision business what do you get up to for activities in your personal time? |
| I love football, the Patriots, and the Celtics! So when I get the time I fly out to Boston to catch a game! Of course with the current travel restrictions it has been somewhat hard to do this but I am looking forward to getting back into travelling. Spending time in the USA really helped me to enjoy watching football. |
