OUR HISTORY

Ahren’s Valley Eyeworks opened its doors in 1995. At that time, the vision care market was very clinical and, as our owner Richard Ahrens described, "same ole, same ole." Richard's vision for his business was to bring old-fashioned, personalized service back into eye care. When you step into our clinic, it's like visiting a warm, inviting mountain chalet. It's what set us apart in '95 and continues to make us a step above the rest in the city today!

Our Staff – Our staff are here to help us provide you with the eye care you need to preserve your eye health. Our optometry team is here to help you achieve your eye care goals so that you can get back to, or continue performing, your duties in life.

What our Patients say

Sara Morris

This place is fantastic! The owner, Richard, as well as the other doctors have all been extremely attentive and kind with my children in this journey to help them get the right glasses and see better. Very informative in helping my children to understand how to take care of their glasses and how necessary they are. They've been able to get us in in timely fashions and they've been very patient and kind with us. What highly recommend these guys and will absolutely stick with them for anything vision related for both my children and my husband moving forward. We've worked with them on five different occasions so far and everyone has been absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much For your wonderful service and assistance. 🙏🏽

Carol Korelin

“found everyone at Ahrens Valley Eyeworks to be friendly, patient and supportive, and the selection of frames to be great. And the "sale" frames are available at an extremely generous markdown! I highly recommend that anyone who wants good, competent and friendly service will find that this business will definitely meet your needs and expectations.

Morgan

“So happy with these doctors. They take their time and care with my kids. One ADHer with refusal behaviors and a little one with a very strong prescription. These docs really care for them and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible with the exams and in their glasses. Thanks Ahrens and team!”

Mikaela S

I really need to say how impressed I am with Ahrens Valley Eyeworks. Whether adult or child, Dr or receptionist, they provide excellent customer service. They are knowledgeable about plans and will work with you on your budget. It’s great to know that in a small community you can still receive quality care.

My new glasses are amazing. They have turned reading from something I couldn't really do into something I love to do and I am able to read every day. Thank you Dr. Denz

Sherri Cebey

"The staff is incredibly kind and helpful. I went for my first eye exam in years and I felt like I was well taken care of. It’s magical all that I can see now with my new glasses!

Maile O

My daughter is a first time eye glasses shopper. We were planning on going elsewhere suggested by her insurance company, but after chatting with them over the phone they were happy to oblige a 7 year old with a very serious, important decision. They also took the time to adjust my own glasses that have been causing me issues for months even though I didn’t get them there. They are a true representation of customer service!
