Our Story

At Glasses Half Full, our mission is to provide comprehensive, innovative optometry services for our community.

We first opened our doors on 124th Street in April of 2018, and are proud to have served our community in Edmonton and beyond ever since!

What’s in a name? “Glasses Half Full” combines Dr. Michael’s two favourite things: Optometry and puns! The name reflects our positive attitude and “half full” approach to meeting our patients’ vision needs.

Sunglasses and Optical Glasses

By working with independent designers and offering a breadth of customization options, we offer unique eyeglasses to meet your style and vision needs.

Whether you need glasses for reading, driving, computer use, UV protection, or all-day-every-day-everything, we can find a frame and lens combination that works for you! Our optical consultants specialize in frame styling and have the in-depth lens knowledge to find the best products for you.

Contact Lenses

Contact lenses or glasses? At Glasses Half Full, we believe that great glasses and great contact lenses go hand in hand.

Customized contact lens support is part of our comprehensive eye care philosophy. Whether you need monthly, biweekly, or daily contacts in spherical, astigmatism, or multifocal prescriptions, we’re happy to source the perfect contacts for your best vision.

New to contacts? No problem! Our team can train you on how to insert and remove contact lenses safely and comfortably. You’ll be seeing clearly in no time!

Convenient support

Our website and text message hotline provide convenient options for booking appointments, reordering contacts, and answering any questions you may have – no matter how specific they might be!
