Our Response to COVID-19
Updated: Thursday April 8, 2021
As always, the safety of our customers and staff is our number one priority, so we are putting in additional processes and will be operating our stores differently than usual to ensure cleanliness and social distancing measures are observed at all times.
Our stores are open at limited capacity, and we have everything in place to keep you safe. Our Ontario stores are opened by appointment only. Our RBC Plaza store is temporarily closed. To book an eye exam, retail appointment, repair/adjustment appointment, and up-to-date operating hours , please visit our store pages here.
What’s changed and how to prepare for your visit:
You may book an appointment ahead of time on our website for any optometry services. No appointments are necessary for retail services in our B.C. or Alberta stores. We will be accepting walk-in visits, however there will be a limited number of customers in store at a time and entry is subject to capacity. If located in Ontario, please book an appointment prior to your visit. To help keep your time in store as efficient as possible, we encourage you to pre-shop for frames and styles online at baileynelson.com.
We are now offering eye exams in all provinces. Book an eye exam here.
