Our eyewear ranges are selected from the finest independent manufacturers, who produce handmade products in small production runs. We are pleased to include SALT., Rolf, Lindberg, ic! berlin, TD Tom Davies, Blake Kuwahara Sunglasses and many more. Ocean Optometry grew out of friendship - the desire of four friends to work together, combining their knowledge, expertise, individualism and experience together in one business. It is sometimes funny how the paths of our lives intertwine; we meet friends and colleagues in different locations and at different times. Sometimes we are fortunate to work alongside these people and at other times we just think it would be great to work with someone. Ocean Optometry has been born out of the idea that wouldn't it be wonderful to take the belief that working together with our friends would be the best way to create the most fabulous optometry office possible. It's not a terribly difficult or clever concept, but it is one we are all really excited about! Together optometrists Dr Euan McGinty and Dr John Wilson, optician Alicia Austin have over 60 years' experience in the optometric and optical world. They have a shared passion for quality and exciting spectacle frames, all care deeply about their work and have a desire to provide a level of service and experience for our patients which is simply unrivalled. It is finally bringing all of this experience, energy and enthusiasm together into one office which will make Ocean Optometry simply the place of vision in Nova Scotia. Along the way, we're going to have fun!

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Ocean Optometry will be operating with reduced hours, open from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
We take this day to pause, reflect, and honor the residential school survivors, their families, and the children who never made it home. As a team, we commit to listening, learning, and recognizing the ongoing path toward truth, understanding, and reconciliation within our community and across Mi'kma'ki. 🧡
Regular hours will resume tomorrow.
