5 Best Optometrists in Toronto (2026)

LensCrafters at the Eaton Centre is a national eyewear chain offering eye exams, prescription glasses, sunglasses, and designer frame brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley, and Prada. In-store optometrists handle exams while sales staff walk customers through frame selection and insurance coverage, and the store runs regular promotions like a percentage off a second pair. It is the largest and most-reviewed optometry option in downtown Toronto by a wide margin.

Dr. Archie Chung & Associates has practiced optometry in Toronto since 1983, with this Eaton Centre location operating inside the LensCrafters storefront alongside two other Chung and Tse Eye Care branches. The practice covers eye health exams, cataract and glaucoma management, retinal photography, myopia control, and LASIK co-management, going well past a standard vision test. It also runs a premium support program with a patient portal for online booking and communication.

Kodak Lens Toronto Eyecare is a Yonge Street eye clinic branded around KODAK Lenses, with additional locations across the GTA including Ajax, Etobicoke, and Scarborough. The practice performs comprehensive eye exams and fits prescription glasses and contact lenses, and Dr. Linda Tse has treated some patients across multiple locations over many years as the practice relocated. It advertises over 9,500 reviews across its full network with a 4.9 average.

Bailey Nelson is an eyewear and eye exam brand with this Eaton Centre location staffed by Dr. Monica Udaykumar, who holds a doctorate in optometry from Pennsylvania College of Optometry and has completed advanced training in specialty contact lenses, including scleral and orthokeratology lenses. The store bills insurance directly so customers pay only the balance after coverage, and it sells glasses, sunglasses, and contact lenses alongside the eye exam.

For Eyes By Clearly is a Queen Street West eyewear retailer offering eye exams and glasses at a lower advertised price point than some competitors here, with one customer specifically citing a $95 eye exam as the reason they chose the location. Dr. Melissa Yuen performs many of the in-store exams, and the shop carries brands like Ray-Ban and Michael Kors alongside its own house frames.
