2020 Vision
Ensure you’re seeing your best with an FYidoctors eye exam.
In 2020, our mission is to educate about the importance of eye exams as 64% of Canadians do not get them on a regular basis.
Not only can eye exams detect issues associated with vision, they can also help identify serious overall health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and even cancer.
A trusted relationship with your eye doctor is the best way to monitor changes over time. Our skilled optometrists offer personalized care using sophisticated technology which allows for an incredibly detailed picture of each eye.
We offer a wide variety of tailored solutions to improve your eye health and individual needs and our custom-made lenses crafted at our own lab in Delta, BC can also make an incredible difference in the quality of your vision. Make 2020 the year you see your very best.

Lance Couture
Lance Couture
Dr. Couture is a dedicated professional whose passion for his work is reflected in the individual care held for his patients. An avid learner of the sciences, Lance also appreciates what it means to give.
“I like solving problems and helping people. And I love helping others see better.”
A University of Waterloo graduate, class president and valedictorian in the School of Optometry in 1989, Dr. Couture’s career began on Vancouver Island serving patients in the communities of Courtney, Powell River and Port Hardy. In 1993, Dr. Couture established his first practice, Driftwood Optical in Brooks, Alberta. From this success Lifetime Vision Care was born and quickly expanded to locations within the emerging communities of Edgemont and Tuscany in Calgary, Alberta. In 2008, Dr. Couture partnered with FYidoctors with the goal of coming together with like-minded optometrists to form a strong, patient-centered, eye-care practice.
“Our objective is to grow with FYidoctors, expand our practice and deliver even greater eye care experiences for our patients.”
Whether at work or spending time with family, Dr. Couture approaches all aspects of his life with great zeal and modesty.

Carmela Miranda
Carmela Miranda
Dr. Miranda was born in the Philippines, but moved to Canada with her family at the age of five and considers Calgary her hometown. When asked about her approach to optometry, Dr. Miranda quotes German philosopher Goethe; “You only see what you know.”
She explains that this means a heightened importance on continuing education and more technology in the office and in our approach to patient care. She says, “The more you know, the more you see. If you don’t know what you’re looking at then you don’t know what you’re missing.” She believes that more technology and education will improve the quality of life for our patients.
Her own educational background consists of three years of undergraduate studies at the University of Calgary before transferring into the School of Optometry at the University of Waterloo. She graduated from the program on the Dean’s list in 2008 and received the Carl Zeiss vision fellowship for her year.
While enrolled at Waterloo she was a member of the Beta Sigma Kappa Society and served as a member of the optometry school’s entrance committee. Dr. Miranda completed her internship with Dr. Wooldridge at the Eye Foundation of Utah.
Dr. Miranda spends her free time with her fiancé Alex. She enjoys cooking, eating out, summer hiking and travel. She also loves playing tennis, she says, “it’s a challenging sport and it’s really great for eye tracking.”
