Dylan Trepanier

He/Him/His

Dylan graduated as the Valedictorian of his Business Administration – Marketing program from Sir Sandford Fleming College and is Inspire Vision Care’s expert in all things real-estate, marketing, and technology. Dylan has dedicated his life to learning the scope of the eye care industry, how it performs, how it could be more efficient and where market trends are predicting shifts in consumer behaviour. Dylan is ambitious and determined to work toward solving the vision-loss crisis occurring in Ontario and beyond through means of innovating the delivery of eye care products and services.

Dylan is trying to make a difference by helping people get an eye exam and pair of glasses because he knows the impact it can make in improving someone’s quality of life. Dylan understands this firsthand because he didn’t get his first eye exam until he was in Grade 9. It turned out that Dylan needed glasses for many years before that time, but his symptoms went undetected and he didn’t know that his vision was far worse than his peers. After beginning to recognize symptoms of vision-loss in children while working at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Kawartha Lakes, Dylan grew to realize just how much vision-loss effects your ability to socialize, perform in school, perform athletically, and limits your career opportunities.

In his spare time, you’ll find Dylan eating pasta, playing video games, and doing market research.
