Your Trusted Surrey Optometrist

Dr. Andy Deol brings a rich tapestry of experience, expertise, and a heartwarming family journey to Active Eyes Optometry. His impact in optometry is grounded in an unwavering commitment to patient well-being and a focus on cutting-edge eye care advancements.

Originating from Surrey, British Columbia, Dr. Deol's journey into optometry began at age 6 with his first pair of glasses, igniting a lifelong passion for helping others. He seamlessly merged this calling with his pursuit of medicine, earning a Bachelor's in Science from the University of British Columbia and a transformative Doctorate Degree from Pacific University, followed by Honors in Optometry. Returning to his hometown, he was driven to give back to his community.

Dr. Deol refined his skills through notable clinical rotations, particularly at the Omni Ocular Disease Centre in Atlanta and the Spivack Vision Center in Denver. He adeptly manages complex eye conditions, including diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma, dry eyes, cataracts, and laser eye surgery.

Dr. Deol's inclusive passion encompasses patients of all ages, guided by a personal understanding of pediatric eye care, having been blessed with two children of his own. Since 2009, the Lower Mainland has benefited from his expertise, from his diverse roles in Vancouver-area practices to founding a dedicated Family Eye Care private practice.

Beyond clinical excellence, Dr. Deol aims to raise public awareness about key aspects of eye health, extending his impact to inspire young adults. His curiosity delves into the interplay between psychology, biology, and the intricate relationship between the brain, eyes, and their symbiotic function.

With a deep personal connection to eye conditions like glaucoma, macular disease, and cataracts in his family, Dr. Deol approaches patient care empathetically. He values human interactions, forming bonds with patients, and loves witnessing children's growth over time, even as he raises his own two children.

Dr. Deol's vibrant life extends outside his profession, encompassing his love for fine wines, travel, golf, hiking, skiing, tennis, and a new passion for hunting. His fusion of professionalism and personal connection, curiosity and compassion, expertise and relatability, creates a tapestry that enriches lives and his own journey.
