      "description": "In a world where most eyeglass stores and eye care offices are outrageously expensive because they are owned by large corporations, Karen Optical remains a family owned and operated business since 1970. Our service is incomparable in the region and we offer only superior products including designer eyeglass frames and lenses with the clearest optics. We cut our own lenses in our professional lens lab, so that we can ensure that the quality matches our strict standards. We offer cut-down lens service which typically takes about an hour. We are proud to now offer eye exams. Come in and let us show you how we are different.",

| Location info | Description | In a world where most eyeglass stores and eye care offices are outrageously expensive because they are owned by large corporations, Karen Optical remains a family owned and operated business since 1970. Our service is incomparable in the region and we offer only superior products including designer eyeglass frames and lenses with the clearest optics. We cut our own lenses in our professional lens lab, so that we can ensure that the quality matches our strict standards. We offer cut-down lens service which typically takes about an hour. We are proud to now offer eye exams. Come in and let us show you how we are different! | Confirmed | Google Business Profile |

It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. Wilmington eye care centers run 26 to 58. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. Karen scores 26, below the Wilmington average of 39. The same method scores every business on the registry.

| Signal | Weight | Score | What it measures | Karen |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Retrieval grounding | 26 | 0 | 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. | Poor |
| 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 | 5 | Whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews name you, and whether they name you for the right service. | Poor |
| Reviews & response | 12 | 87 | 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 | 55 | Domain authority and editorial quality of the sources that attest to you. | Fair |
| Google Business Profile | 8 | 84 | Required and recommended fields; update cadence. The listing AI pulls from first. | Good |
| Speed & mobile | 7 | 50 | Core Web Vitals at the 75th percentile, on a real phone. | Fair |
| Content freshness & schema | 5 | 57 | Crawl recency, intent alignment, valid JSON-LD, canonicals. | Fair |
