What Our Patients Are Saying…

Dr Ballard takes his time with each patient. His equipment is updated and he is thorough. I recently had a retinal leak and he let me call and text him while he was out of town over the weekend. He is also patient and fun with kids. Great all-around doctor. Highly recommend.

I selected Dr. Ballard and his team of employees years ago for my family. Honestly being new to Nashville, I based it on in-network availability and location. They took such care of my families health and I learned how much they could see in the human eye. My employer changed insurance companies and unfortunately I needed to select another provider that was "in network." 7 years later today, with renewed VSP insurance, I walked back thru their door and was immediately recognized and greeted like I never left. Masters of talking you through the exam, insurance questions, and picking out the frames! 😍😍😍

I have been going to Ballard since 2007. The team is very experienced and provides you with personalized attention to your needs and wants. The Doctor is excellent in his field. Because he is so good in his field, we travel 2 hours for our annual checkups and any follow ups just to continue seeing him for our vision needs. He is patient and kind at all times. He listens to you and will investigate any concerns you have. He is very honest and professional. The staff is very talented. They know what looks good for your face shape. I know I can trust their judgment. They can help you through the entire process of selecting your frames, choosing the right options for your lenses, and fitting. As for contacts, you get the same great service and expertise. I will continue to go to Ballard Vision Associates as long as I can. L. White

This place is great! The doctor spent time with me educating me about my eyes as well as answering questions I had. The office staff are also professional and courteous. They have a beautiful office in a great location. Last but not least they have a great selection of glasses to choose from.

Dry Eyes Treatment

Dry eye disease won’t have a permanent effect on your vision, but there is no reason to endure dry, itchy and uncomfortable eyes, especially since there are so many treatment options to increase moisture and comfort.

Eye Exams for Children

According to experts, 80% of learning is visual, which means that if your child is having difficulty seeing clearly, his or her learning can be affected. To ensure that your children have the visual resources they need to grow and develop normally, their eyes and vision should be checked by an eye doctor at certain stages of their development.
