Ballard Vision Associates

I've been going to Dr. Ballard for years. They are great! Very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly.

I have been going to see Dr Ballard and staff for over 7 years now and he is the best.....takes his time and listens while also providing the most up to date eye examines.

Absolutely the best experience I’ve had with an eye care provider. Dr. Ballard and his staff are simply the best ... friendly, helpful and enjoyable. As a past RK patient, I have unique vision issues that require extra time and consideration. From the first appointment, Dr. Ballard took his time to carefully assess my situation and make recommendations for treatment options with the best outcomes potential. He’s been patient, kind and optimistic throughout, and I’m grateful. And they have a fantastic selection of eyeglass frames! He and his staff have my highest recommendation.

I had a great experience. It was my first time in. I've been wearing glasses/ contacts for at least a decade now and have been to many different eye doctors/offices. This was probably my most seemless experience it was quick, thorough and the office was quiet with a stress-free ambiance and very clean! Every staff member was friendly and helpful. There's coffee and water while you wait. You also sign in on a tablet which was nice, clean, and easy to use. I loved not having to get my eyes dialated. This office has the Optomap imagining machine which takes images of the back of your eyes so you don't have to do the dialation drops. Unfortunately it's not covered by any insurance providers so it is $25 out of pocket for this. If your age is 50+ they recommend this imaging plus another retinal wellness service and the out of pocket for those two services is $35. If you do not want to do this and would rather do the dialation drops let the staff know right away or else it will be assumed and pictures will be taken. My technician was very good! I could tell she was very smart and she was also friendly and clear with where she needed me positioned at each machine. After my eye exam, I was fitted for contacts, Dr. Ballard listened and responded to my concerns of my current contacts giving me dry eyes plus some mild allergies. I was able to walk away with some trial contacts. This office carries many different contact brands which is a huge plus. He also went over my retinal images with me which I appreciated rather than just giving me a thumbs up. I was also able to get an out of pocket quote and how much my insurance would cover should I want to buy these contacts. I was able to get all of this done in an hour. Pretty awesome experience!

Dr.Ballard is an excellent Optometrist, very personal and approachable. Exam/Tests are very thorough. His Staff is great! Welcoming, very knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend Ballard Vision Associates to anyone who is looking for a great Optometrist and Staff!

I have always had top notch vision care at Ballard. The medical tests they use are modern, technology enabled, and painless! Everyone at Ballard is friendly, helpful, and efficient. But two things make Ballard EVEN better: (1) They use technology in easy and efficient ways for scheduling, reminders, sign in, and everything else. (2) They have a wonderful selection of frames. (Bonus: they file your insurance for you!) Thank you, everyone at Ballard!

Everyone is so friendly. Dr. Ballard cares about his patients.

Quite possibly the best optometrist in the universe. We've been going to Ballard for a number of years and every time it's a great experience. Dr. Ballard and the whole Staff are funny, patient, knowledgable. They spend time with you to make sure you're happy, they make you feel special! We moved about 30 minutes away and that does not deter me. I have a very very high prescription and Dr. Ballard is the ONLY one that has ever gotten my vision to 20/20 in contacts AND glasses. He's the master. I could live in another country and I'd come back here lol.
