About us
Chic Eyes was founded in 2015 by Optician Ryan Knight. After providing exceptional eye care services to the King City area for seven years, Ryan decided to move back to his hometown of Thunder Bay in 2022. He hand-picked Dr. Wendy Ng to take over the practice because her values and approach to eye care are similar to his own.
“I am so excited to have Dr. Ng continue growing Chic Eyes’ mission of providing high-quality products coupled with excellent service. I feel reassured knowing that our clients are in great hands!”
– Previous Owner, Ryan Knight
A graduate of the University of Waterloo’s School of Optometry and Vision Science, Dr. Ng is an award-winning optometrist who grew up near King City. After completing a clinical internship at the Eye Associates of Pinellas in Florida and spending several years practicing in Peterborough, Dr. Ng is excited to return to the community of King.

Are your eyes constantly watering? The surprising culprit might be Dry Eye Syndrome! It sounds counterintuitive, but it's a reality many face.

At Chic Eyes, we recognize the challenges posed by this common condition and want to shed light on effective solutions. In this article, explore the symptoms, causes, and management strategies for Dry Eye Syndrome.
In the wake of personal tragedy, Douglas Anderson of Dunfermline, Scotland turned grief into innovation. When his son Leif experienced a spontaneous retinal detachment at the tender age of 5, Douglas, motivated by the limitations of traditional eye exams in children, set out to create a groundbreaking solution. In 1994, his vision came to life with the founding of Optos, a company named after the Greek word for vision. The Optomap, born from this journey, is now a revolutionary technology employed by select eye doctors to screen for various eye diseases in both adults and children. At Chic Eyes, we share Douglas's commitment to preventing avoidable blindness, which is why we've invested in the latest Optomap California machine to enhance our patient care.
In a digital age where screens dominate our daily lives, it's not just adults who are immersed—children too are captivated by screens from an early age. Studies reveal that almost all Canadian children are exposed to screens by the age of 2, with a mere 15% of 3 to 4-year-olds meeting recommended screen time guidelines. From smartphones emitting blue light to home TVs, the challenge is real: how much screen time is too much?
