Boardwalk Optometry is a family eye clinic where both parents and all the children are optometrists, dedicated to providing exceptional vision care services.
ln 1989, Drs. Lindsay Kamachi and Daphne Wong-Kamachi took over White Rock’s first optometry practice from Dr. Donald Crawford, who opened it in 1967, technically giving Boardwalk Optometry the distinction of being the oldest optometry clinic in town. In 1992, it was relocated a few blocks away to South Surrey, and a second Boardwalk Optometry clinic was opened in the Guildford area. The Kamachi’s have a large collective interest in many different areas, and provide a wide range of services beyond just primary care.
You can count on our family to take care of your family’s vision needs.
