If you experience an eye or vision problem, you need a team built on experience, trust, and unparalleled knowledge.
Sea to Sky Optometry seeks to demystify eye care by providing comprehensive services that search for the underlying cause of your vision issues. Doing this allows us to provide you with meaningful solutions to help you get back to enjoying your vision.
Our mission is to help people have their best vision to live their best lives. We care about your eye care.
Our Mobile Optometry Clinic
To ensure we are helping as many people as possible, we offer a unique mobile optometry clinic to provide fully comprehensive eye care for your school, office, or community!
When Dr. Mindy Blumberg noticed how many people she could be helping in her area, she wanted to find a way to reach them without sacrificing the quality of her care. The result was the mobile optometry clinic, which has helped nearly 400 people access the services they need to see clearly and comfortably.
The clinic also features a stylish frame gallery, showcasing some of the latest designs from the trendiest brands worldwide!
Please contact us if you’re interested in what our mobile clinic can offer you and your community.
Dr. Mindy Blumberg is an optometrist registered with the BC College of Optometrists and member of the BC Doctors of Optometry. She graduated with honours from the University of Waterloo and moved to Whistler, BC to live in the mountains. Mindy grew up alpine ski racing and has a special interest in sports vision. She does annual performance vision training for the BC Alpine Ski Team to improve their vision for speed and accuracy when racing. She brings expertise on post-concussion vision rehabilitation, and performance sports vision. She also uses these functional vision skills, and vision therapy to improve reading and comprehension in children by enhancing the visual systems needed to have academic success. She is currently enrolled in the Optometric Externship Program to continue improving her behavioural vision therapy knowledge. Behavioural vision provides insight to improve vision with the best possible prescriptions to control myopia, reduce eyestrain, and improve quality of life.
Mindy has volunteered on an eye care mission in Honduras, which helped 500 Hondurans get valuable eye care and glasses. In 2019, she started her first mobile eye clinic in Bella Coola with the Nuxalk Nation. It was an amazing experience for her to get to know the community and help her patients improve their quality of life with better vision. She now calls Pemberton home and enjoys helping her community with their eye and vision concerns. She has connected with the Southern Stl’atl’imx Health Society to provide mobile eye clinic services and continued eye care to First Nations communities. Her mission is to continue to connect with those in need of vision services by taking the time to listen to her patients and collaborate to find the best solution for them.

I can see clearly now with glasses on 🙂
Christine
Sea to Sky Optometry was great! Everyone was friendly and nice and I walked away with a great pair of glasses and my new prescription. As someone from Lillooet, I only hope that they open up an office here too! Pemberton, you’re lucky to have such a great optometrist!

Going to visit Dr. Mindy Blumberg and her team at Sea To Sky Optometry is an incredible experience, from start to finish. Mindy is highly knowledgeable and will teach you more about your eyes in one visit, than you’ve likely learned in your lifetime. I would highly recommend booking in to see her.
Katelyn Spink
Best experience, hands down, I have ever had with an optometrist. Dr. Mindy Blumberg made the process so easy from start to finish. She was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable and so friendly. I am so happy with my glasses (that came in so quickly), and cannot recommend Sea to Sky highly enough!
Andrea Lebel
I love the team and the store. They provided an excellent service and have many beautiful frames. I can highly recommend this optometrist!
