A family legacy of excellence
Hannam Optical's story began in 1983 in Uijeongbu, South Korea — where founder Dave Kim built a thriving optical practice rooted in meticulous craftsmanship and genuine care. In 2000, the family brought that same dedication to Burnaby, BC, establishing what would become one of Greater Vancouver's most respected optical destinations.
Today, with over 50 years of combined experience, the Kim family continues to set the standard — offering everything from the world's finest luxury eyewear to advanced on-site repairs, all with the personal touch that only a family-owned business can provide.
