Established in 1985 by Paul Lau, May Optical was founded with the goal of helping its community see better - from our original downtown location to our current Scarborough store, where we have been since 2005. Ever the family oriented business, May Optical is now owned and operated by Paul’s daughter Carmen, who has over 20 years of experience in the optical industry. We remain a friendly neighbourhood optical that is now welcoming our fourth generation of patients.
