Please, if you haven't had your eyes examined for a while, see Dr. Sherman Tung soon! I went in a few days ago; had a professional, comprehensive exam. Sherman explained everything he was doing, used state of the art equipment I've never seen elsewhere, and documented extensively using cameras & computers. I'll be back for annual visits to Avenue Eyecare. Thanks from Marly Zell, Shifting Gears Driving School

I was having a coffee and enjoying the sunshine this past weekend when I started experiencing some weird things with my vision. I was in the Kerrisdale area and had heard of Avenue Eyecare, so I went there to have things checked out.
Dr. Chang was in that day and she didn't hesitate to take me in. Right off the bat, I was impressed by the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff at the clinic. What stood out to me about this clinic was the state of the art equipment they used there - some that I hadn't seen at other eye clinics before. Here they can take pictures inside your eye, and show you the nerves and the blood vessels inside at the back of your eye - you get to see what the doctor sees! Even more, they can also take pictures of the front parts of your eye if needed (which I haven't seen at other eye clinics)...they can document the health of your eye from front to back!
During the eye exam, Dr. Chang was very patient with me and very thorough. She took her time with every aspect of the exam, to make sure no detail was missed in determining what was happening with my vision. She was knowledgeable, comforting, patient and reassuring, and made sure she explained things in ways that were easy for me to understand. By the end of the exam I was feeling a lot more reassured that everything was ok and I wasn't going blind :)
I wasn't thinking of getting new glasses, but since I was there I decided to take a peek at their frames. Turns out they have a great selection of frames, from fashionable to practical to brand names to simply unique! I absolutely loved a handful of frames, but couldn't make up my mind which one I wanted. I'll definitely be bringing my friends and family back here, both to see Dr. Chang for a very thorough and comprehensive eye exam, as well as to help me pick out some new glasses!
NOTE: They have a SUMMER SALE going on right now on sunglasses! If you've been putting off having your eyes checked, I highly recommend going to Avenue Eyecare to see Dr. Chang, and also check out their great selection of frames and sunglasses and take advantage of the summer sale! -

I book an appointment with Doctor Tung to get my eyes check. Arrive to see he was with another patient. Gave me time to check out the showroom. Love the big wood table in the middle. There was wide array of frames on the wall. He was still busy with patient and told me to make myself comfortable and gave me TV remote to watch TV.
We went through a bunch of test on my eyes. Each step was explain by Doctor Tung. After it was done we went through my results. In the end he could see that I was starting to see slight blurry image from far distance. But overall I had no eye disease and almost 20/20 vision. He say I wouldn't need glasses for now.
Doctor Tung is honest and professional. I will definitely be going back to him on my next eye test and will refer my friends and family to him.
