About Us

Our History

A pioneer in ophthalmology in Quebec since 2002, the Clinique d'ophtalmologie Bellevue, founded by Dr. Paul Harasymowycz (a glaucoma specialist at Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital), has experienced remarkable growth. Initially located in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, the company quickly expanded to serve Laval (2010), Longueuil (2012), Vaudreuil-Dorion and Drummondville (2021), as well as Quebec City (2022). Its most recent addition, the Westmount clinic (2024), demonstrates its commitment to providing high-quality care to the entire population of Quebec.

Bellevue ophthalmology clinics offer a full range of eye care, from general ophthalmology to specialized procedures such as cataract surgery, glaucoma treatment, and refractive surgery for vision correction. Our ophthalmologists provide personalized follow-up care tailored to each patient.

In 2004, Dr. Paul Harasymowycz also founded the Montreal Glaucoma Institute within the Montreal clinic. This organization, led by glaucoma specialists, combines clinical care, teaching, and research. The institute hosts fellowship students, conducts research projects, and provides specialized services for patients with glaucoma.

Today, the Clinique d'ophtalmologie Bellevue has over 60 doctors and specialists and more than 100 employees across its seven locations, providing tens of thousands of appointments annually.

In 2023, Dr. Harasymowycz became co-owner of a first ophthalmology clinic outside the province, located in Ontario, named Laser Ottawa Vision Experts (LOVE).
