I would not recommend optometry with all the issues. Just check out
this website with all the **** you would meet on a daily basis.
Do you really want to deal with this ? Pick any of the optical links.
The patients complain about the Dr., the presciption, the glasses, the contacts, the staff, lab errors etc etc... all to make less than 100 K ? I am not making this up. This site below is from real patients and for once for call , yes I am a senior employed O.D. who still manages to put up with this with a smile for each patient who comes in my exam room. Why ? B/C my job puts food on the table for my family.

Here is a non-edited example of the horrors experienced daily by eye doctors.
"purchased glasses which came to a total (with discount) of $562.00. Since that time, I went into that store at least 6 times complaining that my glasses didn't seem quite right. Each time - and always a new employee would just take my glasses, do a quick adjustment and say have a nice day and move on. I knew something was wrong and they were not giving me quality service or listening clearly to my complaints. Today, July 19 my husband and I went in and spoke with another new employee and he actually listened, pulled my file and checked my lenses. They were the WRONG PRESCRIPTION STRENGTH and also the progressives were not measured correctly. I feel I must contact my eye doctor and have my eyes checked to see if any permanent damage has been caused due to their GROSS ERROR AND NEGLIGENCE. Therefore, I feel I am entitled to reimbursement for my eye exam and possibly a new pair of glasses if required because of their error.
I am quite concerned that there may be damage to my eyes because of this wrong prescription in my glasses and also with the progressive bifocals not being the correct height. I would prefer to have this settled amicably at this level before pursuing any legal consultation. This major problem was caused by Pearle Vision employees at the Daytona Beach store and should be rectified. "" unedited of course.
