Eye Specialist New Westminster
WANT TO SEE OUR EYE SPECIALIST?
Why is it so great to get your eye exams at Lifetime Eyecare?
We are one of the few Eyecare Centres in the Lower Mainland to have an Eye Specialist on staff. If you need to see an eye specialist with us, you can get to see Dr. Diep within weeks, not 4 to 12 months like with other referrals. We have one on-site and on our staff, so there is no need to wait longer than you should! You can get proper care, quickly! Our eye doctors will be happy to see you!
Dr. Diep joined Lifetime Eyecare in 2010 after receiving his Retinal Specialist Training at the University of British Columbia. Prior to that, Dr. Diep practiced in Albany, NY as a general Ophthalmologist. Dr. Diep graduated from the Faculty of Medicine at University of Toronto.
Originally from Windsor, Ontario, Dr. Diep has permanently relocated his family to the Vancouver area. We are pleased to be the beneficiary of Dr. Diep’s decision to move here and we are pround to say that we are one of the very few eyecare centres that also provides an in-house eye specialist on staff. When you receive a referral from one of our Optometrists, you can see Dr. Diep in a matter of weeks, not months like with most other eye specialist practices.
Our experienced team of Optometrists, Eye Specialist (Ophthalmologist), Opticians and Designer Frame Experts creates one of the most complete eyecare and eyewear centres in the entire lower mainland. Voted #1 Best Eyeglass Centre every year since 2008 – Lifetime Eyecare is your #1 location for every aspect of your eye care as well as the best location for the best designer frames and the highest quality prescription lenses.

** Please note that PD (Pupil Distance) measurements are very subjective. We cannot guarantee how any third party uses that information and whether they use it correctly. This is particularly true if you plan to order eyeglasses online, as we have witnessed how a large percentage of lenses that are bought online are produced inaccurately. We do provide a 100% guarantee that any lenses that we create for you will be done properly 100% of the time, or you get to choose (a) replace the lenses or (b) get a 100% refund.
