Shuswap Optometric Centre is committed to providing you with eye care you can depend on. No matter your need, you can expect a tailored experience while we work diligently to find the solutions best for you. Our vision is clear: to provide our valued patients with an exceptional experience. Our focus on innovation, service, and training ensures that we maximize your vision's potential and exceed your expectations.
While we have many senses we depend on, our vision is one of the most important. But when strong prescriptions and eye disease start to develop, they can affect how you go about your day-to-day, and in severe cases, they may even cause vision loss. So how can we help you manage your eye health? The very first step is to have a comprehensive eye exam with our team at Shuswap Optometric Centre.
Quality eye care is vital in every stage of life, but it's especially important for children. Many children's eye conditions and issues are hard to spot because kids may recognize a problem with their vision. Our team is here to help demystify eye care for your child in a way that's informative, comfortable, and fun!
Diabetes is one of the most common systemic diseases in the country, affecting 2.3 million Canadians. And while diabetes impacts your health, the disease can also increase your risk of developing many eye diseases that damage your vision. Regular eye exams ensure these issues are detected early, allowing our team to respond to your issues with urgency and possibly preserving your vision.
Our team at Shuswap Optometric Centre knows the effect dry eyes can have on your quality of life. Whether you're hiking on your favourite trail or working hard at your desk, dry eyes can greatly affect how you enjoy the things you love most. We want you to take back control of your eye comfort, so we've adopted leading dry eye treatments from around the globe.

I had an excellent experience with the team at Shuswap Optometric centre. Sarah did a great job advising me about my lens options and processing my order. Shawni (sorry if I spelled that wrong!) went above and beyond fitting my frames to make sure they looked and felt great. Do yourself a favour and visit.

Clean, modern and extremely comprehensive, I feel comfortable that my family's eye health is taken care of with Shuswap Optometric Centre. From regular eye exams to picking frames and fitting contacts, the staff is skilled and helpful in their areas of expertise. In fact, Dr. Ewanyshyn had me take home trial daily contacts and wear them for a few days, then come back so he could make sure they fit my eyes best. A shout out to Dr. Allaway who once went the extra mile to open the office after hours and retrieve my last-minute contact order so I could wear sunglasses & contacts while on vacation.

I really like this place! First the front desk and assistants are friendly and smiling; it must be a great place to work. Secondly, my doctor is fabulous. He explains everything to me very clearly so that I understand what he is looking for and what is happening with my eyes, now that I am from the dark ages!!

Had a mishap of one of the lenses of my glasses pop out of the frame while we were on vacation and my spare pair had missed being packed. The staff, from the receptionist to the technician, were friendly, courteous, and efficient. They explained what they would need to do and advised me that there was a slight risk that my frames could be damaged. The fears were unfounded - their expertise had my glasses back to normal in no time at all...and they didn't even charge for the service!
I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing optical service and products. Will definitely be back the

Unlike the other reviewer I had a lovely time here. I called at the beginning of the week to check their prices and booking schedule and was greeted over the phone by a wonderful receptionist who then transferred me to one of the doctors I believe, upon deciding they would be able to give me a better description of services and cost. I was informed that I should probably come in with $300.00, which while more than I had wanted to spend I found reasonable as we did not know what kind of frames I would be buying there and wanted to have all the bases covered. Extra insurance, so to speak.
