In-Home Appointments

In-home appointments are designed to be easy and relaxed. I come to you with a handpicked selection of approximately 225 frames so you can browse comfortably in your own space.

We review frame options, lens choices, and pricing together with no pressure and no obligation to buy. Most insurance providers can be directly billed.

Once your order is placed, your glasses are delivered directly to your home. Follow up care is always available.

Mobile clinics started February 20, 2024, with the goal of improving access to eyewear services in communities where a traditional optical store may not be close by.

Clinics run on a two week rotating schedule every Thursday, alternating between the Fundy Geological Museum in Parrsboro and the Pugwash Fire Station, ensuring regular access for both communities.

At each mobile clinic, clients can browse a wide selection of frames, receive professional guidance on lens options, and place their order during the same visit. Pricing and insurance coverage are clearly explained, and most insurance providers can be directly billed.

Glasses are typically ready within 7 to 10 business days and can be picked up at the next scheduled mobile clinic, picked up at the Amherst store, or delivered by arrangement.

Please refer to the monthly schedule for exact dates and locations.

It’s been about 2 years for a lot of my clients, and many benefit plans have reset. Now’s a good time to take advantage of the buy one, get one free. You can bring a friend and split the cost, or get two pairs for yourself!

Walk-ins are always welcome in-store or at mobile clinics.
