Visions One Hour Optical is 100% B.C. owned and operated and proud of it! We opened our first location in 1988, in Victoria B.C. Since then we have been proud to expand to our current 10 locations. We believe our success can be attributed to four things; great service, selection, value, and most importantly, our professional Opticians are second to none. Each of our Super Optical Stores offer over 1500 quality frames to choose as well as a wide array of lenses which are fabricated by our lab technicians, in our in store Optical Laboratories. Together this is an unbeatable combination allowing us to provide quality eyewear at better pricing than the American chain stores. Since we craft our eyeglasses in our in store laboratories, we can produce most orders in about an hour with impeccable quality control each step of the way. By not having to send your eyeglasses to a distant lab for processing we are able to save our customers both time and money.Giving back to the community has always been important to the Directors of Visions One Hour Optical. Visions One Hour Optical gives back through many corporate donations to local events and charities. Visions has sponsored Canuck Place, local sports teams, and been part of the popular food bank and Christmas tree programs. Visions is also proud to support third world eye care programs by donating new eyeglasses. The ten locations of Visions One Hour Optical are also donation points for used eyeglasses, which also go to the third world, giving needy people the gift of sight.

I became a burn survivor from the result of a logging accident (helicopter crash). Two years and 12 major operations later, I discovered wood once again, and everyday realizing how fortunate I am.
