Dr. Jimmy Prince

Dr. Jimmy attended the University of Macewan majoring in mathematical sciences and graduated 2018 with honours with distinction. After being accepted into the University of Waterloo Optometry program, he developed a strong passion for many aspects of Optometry, with special interests in children’s eye development and specialty contact lenses including scleral lenses. He has been involved with many extra-curricular projects, including developing new ophthalmic instruments and 3D printing art for patients with low vision.

“I first became interested in Optometry because I love the feeling of helping someone, and I love face-to-face interactions. Being very shy myself growing up I know that the doctor’s chair can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be.”

Dr. Jimmy grew up in Mill woods, and has greatly enjoyed being back in Edmonton to stay. Married to his wife with two energetic young boys, he enjoys hobbies such as sports photography, astronomy, programming, and music that keep him busy.
