Meet Dr. Larry Sumner (Denver, CO)
Larry Sumner, O.D. received his Doctor of Optometry from Penn College of Optometry in 1973 and earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the College of Charleston in 1969. Dr. Sumner has been practicing optometry since 1973, and specializes in scleral lenses and dry eye.
Dr. Sumner says he became interested in optometry after he went to see a retired Navy O.D. for an eye exam and realized he liked the duties of an optometrist. Ever since, Dr. Sumner has found great pleasure in helping people see better.
When Dr. Sumner is not with his patients, he enjoys cross-country skiing and learning about military history.

My wife had an incredibly frustrating experience here trying to get a simple pair of contact lenses.... Show More After multiple failed attempts to get her prescription right — despite her clearly explaining that the lenses were not working — the staff seemed more interested in insisting that their numbers were correct rather than actually listening to the patient.
Instead of acknowledging the issue or offering real solutions, they resorted to gaslighting her by claiming that her vision was perfectly fine at 20/20 — even though she could clearly tell her vision was off and uncomfortable. It felt dismissive, unprofessional, and honestly insulting to be told that what she was experiencing wasn’t real.
We expected care and accuracy — not attitude and deflection. We will definitely be taking our business elsewhere and recommend others think twice before trusting this place with their vision needs.
Edit: After posting this review, Dr. Sumner personally reached out to us and took the time to make things right. We genuinely appreciate that they cared enough to follow up and resolve the situation. It’s clear that they value their patients and are willing to correct mistakes when they happen. That effort meant a lot to us.
