Vision Quest Optometry Group

An Important Update Regarding Vision Quest Optometry Group:

After 4 years and 7 months of serving the Vancouver community, Vision Quest Optometry Group has permanently closed its operations.

It has been an honor to carry the torch for this location, building upon the 25-year legacy established by the previous owner. We are incredibly grateful to our patients, the Vancouver Mall community, and our partners at LensCrafters for your trust and support over the years.

Patient Records & Future Care:

To ensure seamless continuity of care, we are pleased to announce that the practice has been transferred to the new leaseholder, Pacific Optometry.

All patient records have been securely passed to Pacific Optometry, who will continue to provide eye care services at this same location inside the Vancouver Mall LensCrafters. You can continue to book your exams at this location knowing your history is preserved.

Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your vision health journey.

Happy Thanksgiving!
