After graduating from the University of Toronto with an Honours Bachelor of Science degree received with High Distinction, Dr. Lisa Tay continued her studies at the University of Waterloo, where she completed her Doctor of Optometry degree with Dean’s Honours.
Dr. Tay’s special interest in myopia control was inspired by her personal experience with complicated vision challenges since childhood and the specialist treatment she received. She deeply understands the value of dedicated and comprehensive vision health care and is committed to providing that for all of her patients.
Dr. Tay has also brought this commitment to her work with Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (VOSH), which has included providing eye care to Indigenous children in Manitoulin Island, Ontario. When she is not in the clinic, she enjoys running by the lakeshore, trying out new coffee shops, hike trails and recipes, spending time with loved ones, and collecting house plants.
