Go anywhere but here. We took our daughter to Apple Valley for an eye exam and were told she needed glasses. About $500 later, she started having problems with the glasses, including dizziness and discomfort. We were initially told this was normal while adjusting to a new prescription, so we gave it time. After nearly two months, she was still getting dizzy, so we took her back. They rechecked her eyes and told us, “Oops, the prescription was wrong,” and replaced the lenses. Unfortunately, the dizziness continued. At that point, we decided to get a second opinion. That eye doctor told us our daughter actually had perfect vision and did not need glasses. We were concerned enough that we went to a third eye doctor for another independent opinion, and they told us the same thing. What makes this even more frustrating is how Apple Valley handled it afterward. I contacted them FOUR separate times about what happened. Each time I was told someone would call me back or that the issue would be addressed and we would be refunded. No one ever followed up, and nothing was ever done. Mistakes can happen, but taking responsibility and communicating with your customers matters. After spending $500 on glasses our daughter apparently never needed, dealing with months of dizziness, and then being ignored when we tried to resolve it, I absolutely cannot recommend this place.

I have a long history of eye appointments. This office is by far the most impressive and my favorite. I was very pleased with my visit. The front office is kind, friendly, and quick to respond. It has a welcoming feel when you walk in. The tech who walked me through the beginning eye exam was friendly and knowledgeable. The technology used here is top notch. No eye dilation and no uncomfortable puffs of air to the eyes! I was very impressed by the high tech used to capture images of the eyes. I met with Dr. Erickson. He was thorough. I really appreciated that he showed me the images and explained his findings.
The staff was very kind and knowledgeable. I liked how the doctor explained what all the pictures they took of my eyes to meant.
Front Desk was nice and wonderful letting me know about my insurance because I was not aware of my benefits (in 15 years never had to use our eye insurance). Dr Blake was fantastic with my 10 year old daughter and he was very informative and did a great job explaining everything to me. The man who assisted us ordering glasses and paying was my favorite!!! I knew he was super busy however he was present in the moment with us and made it about my daughter and that meant everything to me! Thank you for excellent service!!! I definitely will recommend Apple Valley Vision.
Fantastic customer service. Doctor was friendly and very knowledgeable about children's eyes. From start to finish a very positive experience. From the moment we walked in it felt like they knew us forever, they addressed the children directly by name and made sure they understood their care. They excitedly encouraged my son as he learned how to put in and remove his contacts. They made my daughter feel special about her first pair of glasses, and helped my teenager find an work with her individual style. I definitely recommend this entire office their hard work is appreciated.
