The practice is known for its friendly staff but has received mixed reviews regarding the professionalism of some doctors. (AI guess, from 239 reviews.)
It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. Mobile eye care centers run 41 to 68. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. Friendly Eyes scores 42, below the Mobile average of 48. The same method scores every business on the registry.
| Signal | Weight | Score | What it measures | Friendly Eyes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieval grounding | 26 | 50 | Whether you appear in the ranked results AI retrieves and cites: AI-Overview citations, organic top-10 for your money queries, and the Bing index ChatGPT leans on. | Fair |
| Off-property attestation | 20 | 40 | Volume and consistency of what others say about you: YouTube mentions, branded web mentions, third-party “best-of” lists. The cause of retrievability. | Poor |
| AI visibility | 14 | 0 | Whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews name you, and whether they name you for the right service. | Poor |
| Reviews & response | 12 | 83 | The star average is only one input. We also read volume, velocity, the specificity of review language, and response cadence. Specific reviews are what AI quotes verbatim. | Good |
| Backlink & citation authority | 8 | 64 | Domain authority and editorial quality of the sources that attest to you. | Fair |

Where this page sits in the registry. It's one profile among the eye care centers in Mobile, linked to the lists and towns around it.
This is exactly what this page sends to Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini. We publish it in the open for two reasons: so you can see nothing here is hidden or made up, and so any business or developer can copy it. Being a good local AI steward means the machine version says exactly what the human version says.
