See Clearly. Live Fully.
Cataracts shouldn’t slow you down.
Since 1992, we have helped thousands regain their vision with advanced private cataract surgery.
There’s no long waitlists, no unnecessary referrals, just safe, effective results delivered by a team you can trust.
Who We Serve
Helping People See Better, Sooner
Our patients come from across British Columbia and beyond, with many referred by friends, family, or physicians who have seen the results for themselves.
This service is ideal if:
You’ve been diagnosed with cataracts
You want to reduce or stop wearing glasses
You prefer not to wait through the public system
You’re looking for the most advanced surgical care available in Canada
Not Sure if You Qualify?
Let’s Talk About Your Vision
If you have cataracts, or think you might, we’ll walk you through the diagnosis, lens options, and expected results at your consultation.
We don’t rush, and we don’t push. We focus on what’s right for your lifestyle and your eyes.
Cataract Treatment Without the Wait
Faster Access. Faster Recovery.
Public waitlists can stretch for months, sometimes longer.
Our patients are typically assessed and treated within two months, and we’re proud to offer immediately sequential cataract surgery.
This means both eyes can be treated safely on the same day.
Our approach minimizes disruption to your life and helps you enjoy clearer vision sooner. We’ve been offering this solution for more than 20 years with outstanding results.

Brander
“The most important decision you will make when considering surgery is the surgeon, and the practice they run.
I had Laser Assisted Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) surgery with Dr Blaylock in January 2025. I honestly could not be happier – this has truly been life changing for me.
Dr Blaylock and his staff are so incredibly professional and caring. He has years of experience, takes the time to understand your circumstances, lifestyle, and desired outcomes. I trusted him and his team fully and always felt in such good hands under his care. Highly recommended!”
