I was a tourist in need of help and the Dr. was so nice, she helped me even though it was the end of her work shift. Amazing service!

I've have been going here since I was younger and it had always been great. I am indginious and they always do a great job and as well I do get my glasses pretty relativity quick.

Our experience with Dr MacDougall and Ottico has lasted decades and we still love coming back for our eye exams and eyewear. I hope to live to 100 so I can continue to enjoy Brad’s humour and Ottico’s most excellent eyewear.

I am so glad I took a chance and went here. Changing doctors is a little iffy sometimes but this was a great change. They took the time and had the knowledge to find the right prescription for me even though it wasn't straight forward. I am so excited to have better vision and they had amazing frames to fit my personality. Can't recommend them enough.

I never thought I'd be able to successfully put in contact lenses, but I'm super happy I booked an appointment with them today!!!!!! I'd previously tried a contact lens fitting session at Costco years ago, but left in tears and feeling like there'd be no point ever trying again. But with upcoming scuba lessons, I wanted to try again. Dr. Jessica Melville and other staff were super patient, helpful and friendly. They gave me different techniques to try, taught me how my eye size could make it more difficult, and Dr. Melville even put the contact lenses in for me first so I could get used to how they felt. I ended up taking 1 hour and 20 minutes to successfully put the contacts in and take them out, but I loved their approach. They had a separate sink and mirror area where they'd leave me for short periods so I could try without the pressure of anyone watching, but they always made sure to check in to see if I wanted more help. Thank you so much, this feels like a dream come true!!!!!!

Dr Vanessa Flak is amazing. She performs comprehensive eye exams and routinely follows up with you. One of the best ophthalmology clinics in Vancouver that actually listens and tries to help out.

Dr Vanessa Flak is a great optometrist. I went in with a lot of pain and she immediately put my at ease. Helped me understand things better and made sure inwas on the right track on my follow up.

My optometrist Dr. Vanessa Flak immediately put me at ease. She did all the necessary measurements and then explained the pictures that were taken and answered several questions I had. I highly recommend Vancouver Block and their staff. Everyone was super friendly and the office had a great vibe!

I have an optician in California where I live, but I always come here for a second opinion because the whole team is amazing. I am lucky enough that my company has an office in the same building, but I would travel from far and wide to be assessed, cared for, reassured, and guided by the great team here. Today, not only did I have a great eye test, but they also "fitted" the glasses I purchased elsewhere, and the difference is incredible, which is why I am writing this review. Go, team, keep being great. Cheers!

I am extremely happy with the service I received today. I had a fully comprehensive examination, and I was relieved to see that everything about my eyes was carefully checked, leaving me with no cause for concern. Dr. Flak is truly patient and knowledgeable. She addresses all your questions attentively and provides thorough examinations for all your possible concerns. You feel she truly cares about each patient, which is rare these days. I am so happy I found this clinic.
