Dr. Natasha Liaw O.D.

Co-Founder | Optometrist

Dr. Natasha Liaw O.D. was born and raised in Edmonton, AB, where she completed her Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Biology and minors in Chemistry and Psychology. She then pursued her Doctorate of Optometry at Salus University (Pennsylvania College of Optometry) in Philadelphia, PA.

Dr. Liaw’s passion for optometry is deeply personal. Having worn glasses since the age of 6, she understands firsthand the challenges and experiences of those with vision needs, particularly growing up in the 90s when glasses were less fashionable. This personal experience, combined with her observations of patients being misled into unnecessary purchases, inspired her to establish a clinic where trust and transparency are paramount.

At Wink Optometry, Dr. Liaw is committed to providing clear, honest advice and ensuring that patients receive the best care tailored to their needs and budget. Her goal is to foster a trusting relationship between her patients and the clinic.

Outside of her professional life, Dr. Liaw recently welcomed her son, Nigel, into her family. She enjoys spending time with him and pursuing her interests in aerial arts, including hammock and hoop.
