Thank you for your support!
We want to say a massive thank you to all of our wonderful patients. To win Best Place for Eye Care in 2025, 2024, and in 2020 means the absolute world to our entire team at both Eye Etiquette locations at Belmont Market and Millstream Village. We love being your go-to eye doctor and eye care provider. Whether you live in Colwood, Highlands, Metchosin, Sooke, or beyond we are so happy to see you and your families in our glasses store.
Kids EyeSight
While we have your attention, we want to remind you to book an eye exam for your kids before school starts. Youths 18 and under eye exams are covered by MSP once a year. We know how tough it can be to get kids to sit still for a vision test. Eye Etiquette has kid-friendly optometrists and opticians that make every pediatric eye exam fun, fast, and easy. Our optometrists are trained to help little ones feel perfectly comfortable. Plus, we have a huge selection of awesome kids glasses that they will actually want to wear to school!
