Summary

Founded in Alberta in 2008 by a group of independent optometrists, FYidoctors has grown to be Canada's largest doctor-owned and professionally managed eye care provider with over 270 locations nationwide.   

 At FYidoctors, we believe that optimal eye health extends far beyond simply seeing clearly. While traditional eye care has long focused on correcting vision with glasses and contact lenses, modern optometry offers a wealth of preventive and therapeutic solutions that can transform not just how you see, but how you feel and function in daily life.
