Saigon Optical was started 30 years ago by Sam and Dianna Pham, now licensed opticians who immigrated to Canada from Vietnam in 1981. Together, their passion for business strongly motivated them to start their own small, independent optical store in the heart of Toronto, Ontario. Initially the business was catered to a small downtown core community, but Sam and Dianna’s growing experience and passion in the field led them to pursue further ventures for their optical. With their knowledge in eyecare, they wanted to continue reaching out to more of the Toronto communities to help improve vision and positively impact quality of life.

And so, throughout the years, the once small single store has grown and expanded into three flourishing and modern locations throughout the Toronto and Greater Toronto Area, operating under the trade names Saigon Optical(2), and Eyelike Optical.
