Island Eyecare Ltd

Island Eyecare Ltd Proud to be providing modern eyecare and eyewear to Cape Bretoners! New patients welcome. Dr MacInnis has a special interest in Dry Eye Disease.

We started out serving Sydney residents in 1975 at 247 Charlotte St and moved to our current location at 117 Welton St in 1990. In 2015, Dr Shaun MacInnis took over the practice to promote modern eye care in Sydney. He and our eye care staff are here to care for all of your vision needs. We handle everything from adult and children’s eye exams and hard-to-fit contact lenses, to eye emergencies, treatment of eye diseases and co-management of eye surgery such as LASIK. We also have one of the largest frame selections on the island. Come on in and take a look for yourself!

Don’t worry… your Island Eyecare team has had slightly more training since these photos 😉 Can you guess who’s who? 👀

Our team is pushing our way into a new challenge! 💪 In February, our team is participating in the Push-Up Challenge. We're taking on the challenge of doing a ton of push-ups between February 5th and 27th, 2026, to raise awareness about mental health issues in Canada.
