Dr. Kit Tung Ip

Dr. Kit Tung Ip, OD, FAAO

Dr. Kit Tung Ip received her Bachelor of Science degree with Honours from University of Waterloo. She then pursued her Doctorate of Optometry at the New England College of Optometry in Boston, Massachusetts, where she graduated as a member of the Beta Sigma Kappa Optometric Honor Society. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry.

Dr. Ip has been an important contributor to the development of specialty contact lens and dry eye clinics in the greater Boston area of Massachusetts, and now brings her experience from the prestigious Ophthalmic Consultants of Boston, a multidisciplinary eye care center, to Gordon Wood Eye Associates.

Dr. Ip is experienced in primary care optometry seeing both children and adults, and in specialty and custom contact lens fitting for high prescriptions, non satisfactory post-surgical visual outcomes or irregular corneas, prosthetics, and conventional daily contact lens wear. Her passion in specialty contact lenses and vision rehabilitation motivates her to push the boundaries of traditional methods in order to establish the best solution for those suffering from reduced vision due to barriers created by the patient’s ocular profile.

Being licensed in both Canada and the US, she is thrilled to be back in her hometown of Toronto and to serve the community she grew up in. She is proud to provide eye care services in English, Cantonese and Mandarin fluently. When she is not seeing patients in clinics, she enjoys spending time with her daughter, listening to music and travelling.

Haniel is a proud graduate of Seneca College, on the Dean's List. She loves finding pairs of glasses on patients that not only suit their face but also feel super comfortable. She's a bit of a glasses collector herself—her goal is to have up to 20 pairs! While she usually leans toward minimalist styles, she’s not afraid to mix it up with something bold now and then.

Haniel is happy to offer assistance in both English and Tagalog. When she’s not at work, you’ll probably find her exploring small towns, trying out new food spots, cooking up something delicious, or binge-watching anime and K-dramas.
