Protecting your kids' eye health is a huge part of taking care of their overall health. If you notice them complaining of headaches, sore eyes, inability to read the whiteboard in class, or blurry vision, call us at (250)-598-3346 to book a comprehensive eye exam, free of charge!

MSP will fully cover the charge of their eye exam up to age 18, and it is recommended that they go for one once a year, regardless of if there is a change of vision or not.Toddlers aged 2-5 years old should come in twice between those ages, and more if there are suspicions of any underlying conditions.
Single vision lenses aim to correct one distance view, may it be near, far, or intermediate. These lenses are best for a client who requires only 1 zone for their distance vision. Bifocals are types of multifocal lenses that are sectioned off into 2 eye zones. These lenses work best for a client who requires distance correction for near and far vision with no transition between the two.
To book a contact lens fitting or order contact lenses from us, give us a call or send us an email! Our expert contact lens fitters, Connie & Coreena, take wearing contact lenses seriously! All-day comfort and sharp vision are the things our clients desire most in their contacts. We care about your eye health so it is our mission to provide you with all of the information you need including the risks associated with contact lens wear.

Both Connie and Carina are wonderful to work with!!! I've been working with them for the last 6 years and my contacts have always felt comfortable, and it's always been the correct prescription for my horrible astigmatism eyes. I moved all the way down to Houston, Texas two years ago and I make sure I still get my contacts from them. They get them to me quickly and I wish I could transport their business down south!!!

I’ve been wearing contacts and glasses for 20 years, and in that time I’ve probably had eye exams at a dozen opticians.
None come close to the service here. The staff are very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. The selection of frames (and especially contacts) is better than anything I’ve encountered, and the customer service is awesome. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I actually enjoyed my eye exam experience. The staff led by Connie were very friendly and more than helpful. The Optometrist Dr. Purba answered all of my questions in a way that I could understand and instilled a sense of confidence in her competence. These people are very good...probably the best in town.
My Tom Ford glasses are spectacular (did you see what I did there?).

Dr. Purba gave me the best eye exam I have ever had. With my challenging prescription, I thought that I'd never see well again, but I was wrong. Connie helped me select a pair of funky glasses that not only worked with my prescription, but look amazing. I get so many compliments. I will definitely be going back!

Great experience! I went there for an eye exam and Dr. Purba was very thorough, professional, informative, and friendly. The receptionist was very nice and helpful, as well. I highly recommend.

One of the arms on my frame broke off the other day (Friday). Called around to try and get an appointment to fix this issue; called several Optical Shops who could not help me until next week . Then I called Shelburne Optical and Connie squeezed me in that same day. Addressed my needs and in about an hour I was heading back home with my problem resolved and my glasses on my face again. Excellent customer service in these trying times. Highly recommended!

I consider myself pretty fashion-forward when it comes to men's fashion and eye-wear. Over the past decade, Connie not only has been able to provide me with the very latest in eyewear trends, but shares a level of expertise that I haven't seen anywhere else. I live in Kelowna now and I still get my frames from Shelbourne.

I always know I'm in great hands when I go to Shelbourne Optical. Connie is very meticulous and treat her clients with extreme care and knowledge. She walks her clients through available options and help them to make the decision that is right for them. Super friendly environment, staff and customer service.

Connie has been addressing my eye glass needs for many years. She is caring, thoughtful, and empathetic. I have multiple visual issues which Connie continues to address with knowledge and expert skill. She listens attentively and considers solutions carefully, offering ongoing help no matter how challenging my situation. I need prisms in my lenses and am sensitive to slight changes in the alignment of my tri-focals. Connie perseveres in adjusting my lenses in order to solve my needs. As a benefit, I also get modern elegant frames at Shelbourne Optical.
