Our Story
Your Trusted Choice on The Ave for Generations
Where It All Began
In 1955, Davis Optical first opened its doors. Ronald O. Davis, O.D., a graduate of the University of Washington and the Illinois College of Optometry, realized his dream of opening his own independent practice of optometry in the heart of the University District. He personally hand selected every frame, and examined the eyes of each and every patient. Through the many years, he earned a loyal following which eventually led to generations of patients returning to Davis Optical for high quality eyecare and eyewear.
Our Vision
We have always believed in the concept of comprehensive eye care under one roof. Our founder was the first in the University District many decades ago to add an in-house lens laboratory to complete eyeglasses “while you wait”.
Our Core Values
At Davis Optical Xpress we believe in providing each and every patient with comprehensive vision care, fashionable eyewear, expert fittings by licensed opticians, reasonable prices, fast service, and a comfortable experience.
