⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had an eye exam at the Lavale Walmart and didn't trust that the optometrist there had any idea what he was doing. I scheduled another exam with Dr. Ricker and he performed a good and professional exam and got my prescription right (the Walmart optometrist had previously screwed that up). If you're around Cumberland-Frostburg, this is the place to go.

I love unique lenses and this place has the MOST STYLISH glasses of any optical facility I’ve ever been. I just popped in to look around and the staff was so nice, and the office seemed really popular as there were plenty of folks inside. Hopefully I can make an appointment with them soon 🤓 …
