REVIEWS OF IRIS Optometrists and Opticians IN Barrie

Alexander Mccate

I've been a fan of this store since I bought my first pair of glasses there. The service is great! Whether you need sunglasses with or without prescription lenses, this is where you'll get the best service in town! You can try different models, order a couple from a catalog, and then choose the one you like the most to buy.

Saturday evening 4:40pm we are getting ready to jump on the highway for a trip to the city to attend a play (show time 7:30). Sam gets in the back seat and goes to clean his glasses when the frame breaks clear in half. What to do, he won’t be able to see the stage without them. Danielle grabs some tape and is about to tape them together. No, no let’s see what time IRIS closes tonight. What luck they are open for 20 more minutes. We walk in the door, explain our situation and one person goes to see if we have a replacement frame. Yes we do, so while he is figuring out if there is any sort of deal another takes the frame and lenses to set up them up. The first gentleman gets us an incredible 50% off and we are off on our adventure in less than 15 minutes. I would recommend IRIS to anyone for sure.

Bill Schwartz

The people are friendly and the service they provide is excellent. When I have had a few problems with my glasses they do they try to fix them. I recommend them and will continue to get my glasses there.

Trevor Richardson

very quick and professional. got my work safety glasses through them and found a stylish pair which would keep me safe. i came in 5 months later as i lost a screw to the nose piece and they fixed it right away. great service.

Karthegaginiy Parmeswaran

I have recently visited Iris Optical for an eye examination and I was astounded by the excellent service the team has provided me with. Seeing an optometrist and having kids with you during the appointment can be difficult but team Iris has helped me by keeping the kids occupied while I was able to focus on my eye exam and talk the professional. Thank you for everything !

Christian Nanini

Excellent services. Everyone is awesome there.

Brittlene Schindle

Exceptional service. I was looking for a specific frame and I had called ALL the optometry stores in Chilliwack and Abbotsford, Iris Chilliwack was the only store who would order the glasses for me, with a no obligation to buy if I didn't like the way they fit. Rebecca was the one who helped me, amazing customer service. I can't stress enough about this place as I called over 20 stores and Iris was the only one who would order them inform me, let alone not follow through with the sale if I didn't like it. Don't go anywhere else other than here! 5 stars!

W-R.J. H.

Super, super experience, very GRATEFUL to Dr. Susie Bowser for remedying my sore eye, doing my eye exam and for Erin Valencourt in helping me choosing my next frame etc., again thank you ALL. In hindsight I should have used IRIS ten years ago . Hindsight is always hundred percent, huh?

Ivy K

Highly recommend this location. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and super welcoming. Very clean facility with great options for frames! Worth the wait for an appointment!!!!

scott kosman

Everyone that's served me here has been incredibly friendly, helpful, and diligent in making sure I got the right glasses and was happy with them.

Katey Wright

I’ve been going to Iris for almost 15 years. Always happy with my glasses, always excellent service. Dr Lam is excellent, I’m a curious person and he answers all my questions. Excellent opticians. I just purchased my 5th pair of glasses from Iris

H82Crash

Donna just took my ten year old Serengeti glasses (my favourite ever) and fixed them while I waited. I asked for the one of the lenses to be replaced as it had fallen out and I didn’t even notice I had no nose pieces. She replaced those as well all for nothing and in about ten minutes. Very friendly and helpful. I recommend supporting this local business. Ask for Donna and tell her Duane from Vancouver Island sent you.

Joanne Knol

Glen Hopkins

My recent eye exam with Dr. Jean was great. He and his staff were all very pleasant and professional. I was impressed that he took the time to thoroughly answer all my questions and make suggestions on how to maintain my eye health. Overall I was very happy and I'll be recommending him to friends and family.

Nikki Nguyen

I've been a patient with Iris for many years now. I met Dr. Le today and had the best experience. She was thorough, friendly and explained everything to me an a way that was easy to grasp. The opticians and staff are always friendly and provide great service!

Dave Shepherd

I was looking to get some new frames and contacts and 2 friends recommended Iris to me. I am SUPER glad I listened! I was able to book an eye exam, Dr. Jean was absolutely fantastic! He talked me through everything he was doing and also made recommendations in regards to my eye health. I have been wearing glasses/contacts for 25+ years and have never had that! And then I got to work with Candice on finding new frames! I have never had a better customer service experience. Ever. I cannot speak highly enough of Candice. She was kind, supportive, and full of knowledge! She studied my face and prescription, we talked about what I was looking for, and I loved her first choice! Her abilities and knowledge made my experience unforgettable. I will be back and recommending to all of my friends and family! Thank you Candice!!!!!

Mary Jane McDivitt

Wow!! Such amazing service and selection at IRIS!!! I would definitely recommend to my friends and family!

Amy

Great staff, very attentive and accommodating. There was an issue with glasses that I had ordered, and unfortunately I didn't end up getting them. However, the customer service here was excellent so I would still definitely recommend coming here.

Gordon Mitchell

As always, EXCELLENT service with TIMELY turn around whether it be new glasses or adjustments. Selection is broad and diverse. Candice has taken care of us the past number of years and her knowledge, professionalism and expertise is unmatched! Are there other choices in town, sure, do you take chances with your eyes, never, stick with a proven commodity, IRIS is it.

Kyle Taylor

Super knowledgeable, friendly staff! Awesome selection of sunglasses! 10/10 will come back again :)

Dr Law and the team at IRIS in Chilliwack all came together for me! The challenge to get correct lens was overwhelming but they did it! Great optometrist - diligent, patient & thorough! Great team in the store - dependable, great listeners and reliable! I can see clearly now for the first time in 3 or 4 years. Thanks so much!!

Andrea McCabe

Wonderful Staff! Thank you for being so helpful and professional. Both Dr's are so kind; Dr.Paroo and Dr.Mui, I highly recommend them! If you ever need help and honest opinions I recommend Brenda or Tammy! They are happy, and very knowledgable on the products in the store as well as knowing what are best for my eyes!

A few months ago, having finally returned from Ecuador with it being an extensive 5 months past the departure date, I was in dire need of replacing my prescription lenses. Once having served the 2 week quarantine, I went in for an appointment and was serviced by a fine young lady Candice. She listened to my issue and concerns with my vision and lenses. My job involves day or night driving and the issues with my vision needed resolving. She went the extra mile , so to say, in customer service to help out my needs. Seeing as I was not able to return to Canada in my warranty period she was able to maintain it due to my lockdown and inability to get services to my lenses. I am a very happy customer because of her service to me and the investment for healthy vision. The entire staff is friendly and prior to this past visit, I have always had great service. Candice tho, she really made me smile with her bright personality. Iris is fortunate to have her amongst the team!

Kevin Walker

These guys are awesome. Very helpful and amazing customer service. They helped me out when I was in a pickle. Got my glasses fix ASAP. 100 percent will be back. I can express how thankful I am.

Jason

The people here are great and the shop stands by their products. I’ve had to have a lens remade because it wasn’t quite right, and they were eager to make it right. Also they’ve helped me with warranty claims on sports glasses that were damaged and the process was 100% smooth. The prices are likely a bit higher than some other options, but I feel like my vision is taken care of very well.

Juliana Vallee

I went there today for an eye examination and not only was I impressed by every single staff member with being extremely helpful and friendly, they were also amazingly knowledgable. I saw Dr. Lam and he was patient and was very thorough. They have a huge selection of eyewear and sunglasses and the prices were extremely reasonable. I highly recommend Iris at Market Crossing in Burnaby!

James Marcus

I was helped by Dr. Jenny Lee and Yukiko, who were both very professional and kind. The service was prompt and efficient. The doctor seemed very knowledgeable and got me my perfect prescription. The glasses themselves are perfect, and they have helped me numerous of times in the past with previous pairs. Overall I would say I was served perfectly and would 100% recommend iris.

Bella Photo

Dr. Hanif Paroo is amazing! He was able to diagnose my condition right away, and was kind and patient walking me through the treatment. I will be bringing in my whole family for checkups and will recommend him to all my friends! 10/10

Katie Bartel

My husband has been going to Iris's chain for nearly 20 years. He did try a few cheaper options over the years when money was tight but we always ended up back at Iris. When our kids where born we naturally took them to Iris and have been going to the Chilliwack location for 10 years. They have gone above and beyond for my kids and husband. Even when there have been issues, usually not their fault, they have taken exceptional care of us. Iris is a little pricier than the competition but the quality of frames, warranty and service is well worth it.

Daniel Futa

For anything eye related, this is the place to go!The entire staff is friendly and professional. Services and products are explained carefully and your satisfaction is guaranteed. I have dealt mainly with Diana and Nicole, who are terrific, but everyone makes you feel relaxed and cared for.

David Meredith

Our glasses from another Iris were damaged during repairs at another at that location. This location agreed to fix them at no cost to us. We're very grateful!

Kathleen Bowser

Great eye health services by Doctor Bowser and the staff. They are professional and courteous.

Cassidy Lariviere

The whole staff is so friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend going to Iris for your eye exam. The opticians are so knowledgeable and so up to date with technology. They can make a custom one of a kind frame which I thought was very cool.

zizi kaloda

good service

Brian Poole

Awesome service and a great attention to detail. Will always shop here.

CHAD PETERSON

Katie Scott

I have never had so many laughs at an eye appointment!! Candice was lovely and incredibly helpful at helping my small head get into the perfect frames!! And with several laughs to boot. Dr. Law was awesome. She explained everything she was doing and made me feel very comfortable. So glad I chose Iris and recommend anyone to give them a try!!

Sara Pearson

I can't recommend this company enough. They are always going above and beyond. Such friendly service and we always are well looked after! Thank you team!!

Tom Wong

They have quality products but price-wise they are quite pricey.

Greg Salisbury

The entire staff are fantastic! I can’t say enough good things about them. They really make you feel comfortable during exams. Dr. Law is very professional and remembers specifics about me and my family that really make me feel like I have known her for ever. This visit was the first time I’ve needed glasses and Brian was very informative and took the time to help me select exactly what I needed. My Family will be lifetime customers! Thank you all

Adrian White

I’m very happy to have found this Iris location so near my home. I found the level of service proved by both KC, the optician and Dr. Lam, the Optometrist, to be exceptional. Both very clearly explained each detail of the procedure to me prior to initiating any test as well as clearly addressed my questions. Covid-19 protocols were in place and I felt safe during my time at the store. Everything was wiped down promptly and customers were well spaced apart. I look forward to my continued business with this team.

Johnny Laprise

Nice people. Slowest service ever. Arrive at 10:20 for a 10:30 appointment...an hour later, we get in. Not to mention the most awkward store setup. No thought towards customer privacy or comfort. Chipped furniture, dirty floors....ugh. For what they charge, I would expect better. Glad I dont have any eye problems, BUT, if I did...I would go elsewhere.

Mark Rayfield

Charles Tucker-Norton

Both times have been into IRIS Campbell River the service and customer care has been above and beyond. Had an issue with my glasses the resolved my issue quickly, effectively and with zero hassle. Highly recommend this place to anyone in need of an optometrist or glasses. Head office if you ever read this, they deserve some kind of recognition for the exceptional work that takes place there.

Tai Weatherhead

I have been purchasing glasses for my daughter and myself from Iris for the last few years. I keep returning because they provide the best customer service and excellent quality of glasses. I highly recommend Iris!

Sylvaine Lelong

I came to Iris Optical for a medical exam, so I was worried. Candice was very kind and made me very feel well looked after. Dr. Law was very patient, knowledgeable and reassuring. I was also very impressed that Dr. Law's eye exam was in perfect French. The office checked on me after two weeks, which was awesome. I came back a month later for a full vision exam, and again, I was delighted with the service that I received. Candice and Brian were very accommodating, and helpful. Dr. Law was very throughout and made me feel at ease. Thank you, Dr. Law, Candice, Brian and Terri at Iris Optical for such a fantastic experience.

Carrie Martin

Randy Clarke

we only have one set of eyes and they are a precious gift. Last set of glasses I went for the "best deal" and it was a bomb. I regret not purchasing with KC at Iris then, but did not make the same mistake again. It was time for a check up and new prescription and this time I went back to KC. Dr. Ng was on hand and she is an exceptional professional. I have ordered my new glasses and look forward to clear vision and am happy that they have the equipment and expertise to look deep into my eyes (literally) and ensure they are healthy and prescribed the best options for healthy and safe vision. Frames for daily use and contacts for stage performance. Randy "mojoman" Clarke

Olivia Argue

I cannot say enough positive words to describe my experience at Iris! I felt totally at ease and in very capable hands. Their selection of glasses was amazing as well. I will refer all of my friends and family. Thanks again!

Nancy Beaulieu

The staff was extremely friendly and super helpful and willing to answer tons of my questions. Their prices beat others in town for a contact lens sitting fee. The location is beautiful and spacious. I felt very well looked after there. I highly recommend this place.

Jorie Sage

Tony Dehnke

I contacted them via email to see if they could replace a lost nosepad on my glasses. They responded promptly saying the could. I dropped by and was quickly taken care of. Nice clean shop, prompt friendly service. Overall a great experience. Thanks!

David O'Connor

Carly Dorrin

Thank you so much to the entire team that helped me pick out the perfect glasses that work for me! From start to finish, my experience with IRIS and everyone of its staff members was pleasant and I will definitely recommend them in the future!

Darryl and Jackie Lyons

On June 2nd 2021 I had an appointment for a complete eye check up. When the apt was booked, with the new receptionist I was NOT told of the price increase, even though when I spoke with Denise later on the phone she said they always advise. I am a senior, and the price within a year has gone from 70.00 for a complete to 105.00,this is a 50% increase, probably due to the fact that this Dr. has now joined with IRIS company.This is just a rip-off and I shall be looking for a new Dr. Unfortunate as this Dr. we both thought was very good. Jackie Lyons

Julie Price

Tobias Boehm

Very friendly service. Helped me with a frame adjustment even though I wasn't a customer yet. Thank you.

Evan Lussier

Great eye exam and lots of help selecting glasses

Jackie Elander

The service at Iris is always great! I’ve been taking my girls there for a few years, but today it was my turn :) Candice was super helpful and honest about my frame choices and Dr. Laudadio was easy to understand and gave me the help I needed!

Kim

I really appreciate their honest opinions when chosing frames. I have always been left on my own to decide what frame style I like on my face and have a horrible time deciding. Today Brian was extremely helpful and the rest of the staff was also very friendly and helpful.

Noreen Besser

Dr. Susie Bowser is amazing. I highly recommend her and this Iris office in Barrie.

jlikitba

Very friendly staff and service is great!

Robert CHERNIACK

Excellent service at this store. K.C. is extremely knowledgeable and very patient.

V3ER

Highly incompetent, avoid at all cost. I paid for a contact fitting and they gave me opposite power for each eye. They postponed my visit by a week to get the right contacts in and they didn't even have my correct power. I can not recommend this location. They have refused to refund me for this botched visit.

Squiddy WN

Jen Y Leung

Friendly and helpful staffs, walk in last minute before closing, still very happy to help us out and pick the best frame for us. Highly recommended!!!

Cathy S

I've been going to Iris at Market Crossing for my glasses and eye exams for a number of years. Dr. Lam is an excellent optometrist and is very patient with my daughter who has special needs. As for opticians, KC is one of the best I've come across. I sometimes have difficulty finding frames that suit my face and he always chooses a frame that I love. Being a repeat customer and recommending Iris to my friends is the best compliment I can pay them.

Ian McCracken

Went in to get Maui Jim sunglasses straightened. Service was quick and even new nose pads added. All no charge. Came out with like new glasses.

Keziah Yamamoto

Aaron Delatorre

I've been a customer of theirs for a long time and have gotten to know the staff very well. They are all very professional and very welcoming. Especially KC and Joseph. Plus the doctors there are amazing and do thorough work. Definitely recommend this location 100%

Rachel Sanderson

A pair of glasses (purchased online) lost a screw. Iris fixed them, free of charge. Thank you so much. I have taken my son here for eye exams the last 2 years, started at 3 years old. They are amazing and patient with him. Would highly recomend them to anyone.

Chris Schaub

I have been going to Iris for about 15 years and wouldn’t even think about going anywhere else. From the doctors to the opticians to the front desk staff, everyone is so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They have a fantastic selection of glasses too. From the moment you walk through the door, you know you’re going to be well looked after. Highly recommended!

cody Hillhouse

Paul Buttle

Excellent service

M-Alexandra

Amazing staff and experience! Very friendly and helpful. They were able to help me after I moved back on the Island and had a terrible experience at another branch. I will definitly come back and make the trip for my next eye exam, they are excellent !

doug nicoll

Top notch service, all the staff were very personable. Candice knew her stuff, and directed me to some great glasses. Thank YOU very much. Now I see why there are so many great reviews here.

T D

My family has used IRIS for years. Each visit we’re treated with great care by the optometrist. Candace frequently goes above and beyond to ensure each appointment and purchase goes smooth. Candace is an asset to the team at IRIS.

Lisa Connell

Great office. Great service . Great Dr. Susie Bowser!!

Joanne Anderson

Dr. Bowser is an exceptional optometrist!

Stephen Jones

I've been a patient of Iris Barrie for years now and I can't see myself having my eyes be taken care of by anyone other than them. I am always greeted pleasantly by the receptionist or by one of the employees the moment I walk in. The doctors are amazing and I cannot say enough about them. Professional, very knowledgeable, so very friendly and great with children. They've been taking care of myself, my better half, my parents, nieces and my whole extended family for many years now. The opticians are amazing! Always looking to help, very experienced, they go above and beyond answering all of my questions or when I'm asking for their opinion, and have made my transition of going from no glasses to glasses a great experience. I recommend absolutely everyone to go to Iris and I definitely recommend you see them too.

Jenifer Shaw

My Silhouette frames needed repair urgently on Monday - I dropped it off and was told to collect on Tuesday afternoon due to being short staffed it had not been done - Brian the manager over heard the conversation and stepped right up to the plate immediately and did the repair himself and I collected them 45 min later this is not the first time he has helped me as he has come in early before the store opened - as I am a severe asthmatic and cannot wear a mask for any length of time - to enable the fitting of my new glasses. Service goes over and beyond - "IRIS IS A KEEPER " will refer anyone requiring glasses to them as they will not be disappointed and I give them a five star rating ! Thank you Brian J Shaw Chilliwack

Clifton Lo

It's not often you receive exemplary service and I wanted to share my experience at Iris Burnaby. This being the first time I've needed to attend to my eyes.... I was given a detailed and thorough exam by Optician Yukiko Lavalle and Dr Leonard Lam. Dr Lam ensured to explain everything in both scientific and layman's terms so I could understand and without feeling rushed so I could ask questions. Recommendations were made of a lens choice that would suit my eye needs. When it came time to pick out my first frames (which can be daunting) Yukiko was beyond patient and wanted to make sure I was making a choice inclusive of function, comfort and style. Give Iris Market Crossing a call... you will not be disappointed!!! ????

Catharine Ragot

Dori Somerset

We've been going to this Iris store for 7 years now. The staff are wonderful, very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. My husband and I saw Dr. G. Jean for the first time and we both felt that Dr. Jean explained things to us very well. Candice helped me choose some new glasses and frames which I am very pleased with. Iris has an incredible staff at the Chilliwack location. After all these years we almost feel like family:) Keep up the great service:):)

Nadine Hughes

Dr Beverley is always on time, professional and lovely to deal with. I would recommend to anyone!

Jan Peters is awesome with kids here. She coached and sat with our son while he tried out contacts for the first time. It was a struggle for him but she was so encouraging and patient with him.

Lin Perpete

Fabulous office, Susie took the time to answer all my questions, she is very friendly and patient

曾維多

My glasses was broken a few weeks ago, and I need to get a pair of new one. There is a bit of a wait, they are busy all the time, maybe because of their great services :). I am a picky person, they take the time to understand my style and needs and helped my choose the right pair of glasses; I spent over an hour and tried on like 50 difference pairs. The sale person was friendly and very patience with me the whole way. No complain there. Their services are great and very professional. I will definitely return for future purchases. Highly recommended.

Jenny Fairbrother

Great service. did more testing than I have ever had done before and finally provided me with some answers! I would recommend them for sure :)

Emily Booth

The customer service was exceptional! I called 20mins before closing for a minor eye emergency and they were able to accommodate quickly and with a wonderful level of expertise, even though we had never been there before. Every step was easy and they saved hours of waiting in the ER! Thank you so much Iris! We will definitely continue to use Iris based on this experience.

The team at Market Crossing Iris has delivered great service to us for several years. The entire team is friendly and make us feel comfortable and well cared for.

Rebecca Pearson

Dr. Susie was wonderful in helping us choose sunglasses for our toddler. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend Iris Barrie!

Sandra Jones

I have an issue with my eyes and was recommended to get a contact for my lt eye. I went to see if I could taught how to insert it. Found out it had to be ordered in and noone was available to teach me therr would be someone in the next week. I got a phone call that the lens was in and I was able to come in till the following week and they reassured me there would be someone there. Well I went in today and guess what no teacher and didn't know when there would be. Why not tell me that when they called? I'm going elsewhere.

AFD Team

They charge to transfer records??? My Dr. is no longer there and I do not wish to continue with the new Dr. It should be my right to receive my records

E S

I used to be extremely scared of anything to do with eyes but Dr. Lam was incredible with me. KC and Evelyn are very welcoming and accommodating. I recommend all my coworkers and family members to go here.

Jordan Vieira

Friendly staff and very professional. Absolutely stunning and clean office and hey there is free coffee!!! Also reasonably priced. My contacts were cheaper here than at Wal-Mart. Unbelievable

Peter Morden

Just got to love Dr Susie Bowser...great person, great doctor

Jerry Hart

Went to this location to look into specialized sun glasses that could help with epilepsy. The staff were extremely helpful, had tons of knowledge, and friendly!

Brian McConeghy

The team at Iris Burnaby was extremely helpful. I could not have asked for better service! They were very patient in helping me with selecting frames and going over all the options for lenses. My partner has been getting her glasses from Iris for many years now and has always been happy with their customer care, product quality, and support.

Rsoo Bo

Dr Bowser is a great doctor. Highly recommended.

Ellisa Legresley

Unbelievable service! They helped me fix my glasses which weren't even purchased from them and didn't charge me a dime. It took the lady about 30mins ( it was a difficult fix) and she just kept on trying until they were as good as new. She even tightened the ear peices so they wont keep falling off during yoga anymore. I know where I will be going for my next pair of contacts or glasses!!

Yulia Belov

Very friendly staff and awesome service. i’ll come back again!

rachael gibb

I had the best service possible at Iris in Chilliwack! All the staff were so sweet and helpful. I had my ten month old with me who was very fussy and tired. One of the staff members held him while I was looking at glasses and put him to sleep!! Aswell as the team member Candice who helped me choose BOTH pairs of my glasses. Candice had gone out of her way to find the polarized sunglasses colour that I was looking for and to have them put onto the frames I wanted. She was AMAZING! I will forever continue to go to Iris for all my family needs Thanks again everyone

James Burchart

Fantastic service, great team, very skilled optometrist!

Laurentiu Iacob

Iris Burnaby is an excellent place to check the health of your eyes and vision. I like the relaxed atmosphere and the friendliness of the personnel. This store is welcoming and customer oriented and it has a good variety of high quality lenses and frames. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Leonard Lam - the optometrist - and especially KC Chao - the optician - for their professional attitude and excellent service.

George Kapsalis

My family and I, are (were) regular Patients/customers of IRIS. The office as well Dr.Laudadio know that we spare no expense when it comes to our eyes. They very well know what I mean by that… I do not usually post comments on the web but this morning’s “treatment” received by the IRIS office here in Chilliwack is worth posting and here is why. I had previously (9 days ago) scheduled a 9:15 AM appointment to see Dr. Jonathan Laudadio. My 9:15 AM appointment arrived alone with a heavy snow fall but I was able to keep my appointment, arriving at 9:00 AM. Upon my arrival was informed that due to the weather Dr. Laudadio would be late. I express my sympathy and understanding for their business interruption and was willing to wait since the Dr. was late, but on his way. For me was important to be first in line to see the Dr. since I had to go to work after that. Followed my morning scheduled appointment, a family of 5 also had a scheduled appointment to see him after me, but the staff wanted to change mine so the group of 5 and others in line would not have been inconvenienced by rescheduling them. I guess changing my appointment was much easier for them than phoning and informing everybody else for the delay. Too much work since their day was full. I found this totally unprofessional, unacceptable considering I had to go to work after the visit. Also I found it discriminatory. I cancelled my appointment and left their office upset. The greed of them losing business by changing the others appointments and the way I was treated make me and my family of three (NOT FIVE) look elsewhere for another Doctor. Sorry Dr. Laudadio.

I have been buying glasses at Iris for many years. The entire team at the Iris at Market Crossing is phenomenal - they are kind, helpful and will go above and beyond to assist their clients. I always feel that they have my best interests at heart. The eyewear selection is excellent but the service is exemplary. I have had great service from Joseph, KC, Evelyn and Stephanie - special shout out to KC who picked out my newest pair of glasses (and they're fabulous!) and Evelyn, whose enthusiasm will always make you feel happier about life. Looking for glasses? Just come straight here!

I have been going to IRIS since I was 8, I am now 26 and I will always be a returning patient. IRIS makes sure they are taking the best care of you and always looking to help save you money! I even referred my boyfriend to IRIS, and he is very happy with the service provided! Thanks again IRIS for always being the best in my eyes ;)

Iris has amazing customer service. We always enjoy our visits with Dr Beverley as they she makes everyone feel comfortable and at home. The opticians and administrative staff are friendly and helpful. They always keep wait times to a minimum, provide great options for their customers, and show that they really care about each individual. Definitely recommend!

I just had a great visit at Iris in Barrie. Nicole really knows her stuff. Helped me pick out the perfect frames for my face. The rest of the staff is very nice as well. Would highly recommend Iris to anyone.

I'm giving Iris Barrie 5 stars review because I have worked here for over a year now and it is a great place to work.

My 9 year old daughter had her first ever eye exam and she was so worried it was going to be painful and/or scary.. Kary took the time to sit with her and explain the process and even took cool pictures of her eyeballs while we waited for the doctor to call her in. Thumbs up for Iris Chilliwack and their super kind and patient staff. Thanks guys!!

The staff was friendly overall. I went in for an eye exam. The optician who did the preliminary checks was very professional. Then Dr. Lam, the optometrist, examined my eyes thoroughly. He was careful, meticulous and patient, not condenscending like some doctors can be. I highly recommend this store and Dr. Lam.

Beth and Gary McConnell

The staff is very friendly and extremely helpful. Would not go anywhere else.

Ray Oskey

Excellent experience. Very professional. Very friendly staff. Been wearing glasses for 30 years. Best place so far.

Iris provided excellent service to my wife and I. We are new residents to Burnaby and couldn't be happier with the service provided!

Derek Braendel

I was very impressed with my experience at this Iris location. The testing felt much more in depth than the last company I dealt with.

Fabulous visit today to see Dr B at Iris. Brought my two and half year old for his first visit to the eye doctor and he was smiling the whole time. The entire staff were incredible with him and he couldn’t stop talking about being a pirate and learning how to clean his sunglasses all the way home. The glow in the dark stickers were the icing on the cake for him...for his Mum it was the seamless, fun, and easy experience that made it worthwhile. The team here has a talent with looking after the little ones and the big ones. Thank you again and especially to Dr B!

Horrible Experience! I really tried to like this location – considering how close it is to where I work. This was my first time using IRIS and I thought with such a big name that they would be a bit more professional. The doctor I received for my eye exam was nice but she made a few errors when testing my eyes- which, at the time I was understanding as she caught herself and she had explained she was tired and had a long day. I was told at this initial exam that they would order contacts in for me – I let the front staff know that I was on my last pair of contacts which expired in 10 days. I was rescheduled for my eye dilatation at a later date – (which went very well and the doctor that performed this was very knowledgeable). However, when I asked for my contacts the staff seemed very confused. They did not order my contacts in. At this point I am already wearing expired contacts. So again, they assure me that they will order contacts in. About a week later I receive a phone call saying that my “test trial” has arrived and that I would have to pay for a “fitting” – I was a bit thrown off as I was never told about any cost for this (and have never been charged by previous eye doctor in the past). When I told the girl on the phone that I was A) not told of the fitting price B) The company did not list any signs of this or provide any information – I was quickly dismissed and told that it was essentially not her problem. She could have simply had a representative reach out to me to clear up the misunderstanding especially since I told her all of the issues.Due to lack of communication and professionalism I will NOT return and I will be checking with the college of eye physicians and surgeons. Iris, has left me with expired contacts and has wasted my time and money.

Our family’s eyes are SO well taken care of at Iris. Dr. Bowser and her entire team give phenomenal service, start to finish. Erin just fitted our teenaged son with his first pair of prescription glasses...a fresh stylish pair of Nikes that he feels very comfortable in! Thank you Iris for the wonderful services you provide!

Kathy Watson

Very friendly and knowledgeable doctors. Enjoyed my experience and will be coming back for my next exam.

Laura Florio

I love this location of Iris at Marine Crossing and I love the people who work there. Stephanie has taken such exceptionally good care of us over the last many number of years and always with kindness, patience and knowledge. The rest of the team is so kind and helpful and Dr. Leonard Lam the Optometrist is very thorough and friendly. This team goes over and above. We highly recommend them!

I have worn glasses for literally 33 years and this was honestly the best experience I've ever had, and I've moved around a lot from smaller towns to major cities so I've been to a lot of different optometrists and opticians. The check up was thorough and everything was explained to me in a way that I could understand. They really listened to my concerns and when it came time to pick out frames, they 'got' what I was saying about my style and preferences. I ended up leaving with 3 pairs instead of 1, and they did not try to up-sell me. The whole staff was engaged and knowledgable and, I know this sounds crazy but, IT WAS FUN. Like, I had a great visit at the office. Plus, covid-protocols were in full effect so it was also safe. Highly recommended. If you need glasses or a check-up- go to IRIS Barrie.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Brian. I am currently working from home due to COVID-19. My glasses broke and I cannot see computer without them. My spares out of date ... my fault ????. Brian was able to investigate and find spare piece needed, grind it down and make it work. Brilliant !!! Thanks again Brian.
