LASIK MD Launches "Break Up with Your Glasses" Campaign Across Canada
MONTREAL, March 9, 2026 /CNW/ - For over 25 years, LASIK MD has been Canada's leader in vision correction, performing over 2 million procedures and freeing people from the hassles of eyewear. Now, with its new "Break Up with Your Glasses" campaign, the brand is focusing on Generation Z. Adopting the direct and transparent language that today's generation expects, the slogan "Break Up with Your Glasses" is designed to show the daily frustrations of eyewear and to remind Gen Z there's a real solution out there.
The campaign revolves around a hero video that opens on what appears to be a breakup with a partner, before revealing the relationship coming to an end is with her glasses. By framing a familiar breakup narrative through humour, the campaign speaks to Gen Z -- a generation that gravitates toward authentic, entertaining content and scrolls past anything predictable. It also taps into Gen Z's focus on holistic wellness, framing vision correction as an empowering act of self-care.
"We wanted to create a campaign that mirrors real, everyday moments," said Jessica Lukian Papineau, Vice-President of Marketing. "As we celebrate more than 25 years of experience, we've seen that while lifestyles and values evolve across generations, the desire for clarity, confidence and greater ease remains constant -- and we're here to help Canadians see what's possible for their vision.
The "Break Up with Your Glasses" campaign prioritizes a complete digital ecosystem. This video-led strategy will be visible across mainstream platforms like YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime. LASIK MD will also bring the campaign to life in the physical world, with highway billboards and contextual ads in gyms and restaurants to reach a wider audience.
To augment the campaign, LASIK MD is partnering with a curated group of content creators to help bring "Break Up with Your Glasses" to life. By sharing their own stories and daily frustrations with eyewear, these creators will highlight the life-changing freedom of clear vision. As the campaign rolls out in several provinces, an exclusive influencer event in Toronto will bring the LASIK MD clinic experience to life at one of its 30 locations across Canada.
"Break up with your glasses" was created in partnership with Montreal-based agency Curious Montreal.
