Since Dr. Amaraweera took over Ballard Optical, the changes have been remarkable — and I mean that for every single visit. She is warm, patient, and genuinely friendly every time I walk through the door. Her honesty and depth of knowledge are impressive, but what I appreciate most is how she communicates. She has a way of explaining things that immediately puts you at ease. As I've gotten older, I come in with plenty of questions — some of them probably pretty basic — and she never once makes me feel silly for asking. Every concern is treated with care and attention. And the staff reflects her same welcoming energy. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and makes the whole experience feel effortless from the moment you arrive. It's also wonderful news that she's bringing in more doctors to grow the practice. This is exactly the kind of quality, compassionate eye care Ballard deserves. Highly recommend!

A good experience start to finish. I got an appointment within a week, paperless quick checkin, Dr Ahmad took me thru each step of the exam and std diagnostics using latest technology, so no puffs of air or dilation involved. She actually made the vision assessment fun. Explained everything. Then the optician was incredibly patient in helping me pick out frame from a great selection. AND they were in network with my insurance. Lastly great location with parking in the back. It doesn’t get any better.

I always get great care and great glass fittings. Full range of specialty options such as transition lenses, uv coating, fixed, progressive or workspace options. My optometrist even put in an urgent referral and discuss an emergency I had with my PCP. I can’t recommend highly enough. Very professional but also warm and friendly.

I had an outstanding experience at Ballard Optical. From the moment I walked in, the team was incredibly welcoming and professional. I was taken in almost immediately, and the entire process was smooth, efficient, and surprisingly fast. The staff made the whole visit feel comfortable and encouraging, and you can really tell they care about their patients. It’s rare to find service that’s this friendly and organized. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch eye care!

Dr. Ahmad is an exceptional doctor who truly goes above and beyond for her patients. She is vey knowledgeable and thorough, taking the time to conduct a detailed exam and explain everything clearly. She is warm, personable, and very easy to connect with. The entire experience is made even better by the office staff, who are also warm and super helpful from the moment you walk in. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmad and her team to anyone looking for eye care.
