I would like to supplement my income but traffic will probably prevent me from ever doing another job on the same day (unless I want to lose sleep). I'm not willing to give up my days off and I start...

Avoid My Eye Dr! Within 4 months, they went from 50 stores to 64 or so and who knows how many since then. I have a lot I could add but let's just say their employees are increasingly miserable. They...

I agree with those that say to move on. I worked at LC years ago and I was thrilled to leave after years of horrible management. It was my first optical job and I learned a lot thanks to the...

You sound like you did a great job given the unfortunate circumstances. I love glasses and I tell patients that I want them to be excited about their choice. It's sad to think about how Mommy Dearest...

Not sure if there are any Jimmy Cliff fans, but here's my contribution.

I just peeped the collection. I'm jealous!

I guess my issue was replacing index & AR with a "lower quality" product. Some brands aren't different but there are some that are. There is a reason why I get an Avance or EX3 coating over standard...

I just convinced my job to get Lacoste because of the reasonable price point and color assortment. Our clientele isn't super fancy but I feel I can get them into the Lacoste. At my previous job...

I was surprised to have this "rule" at my current place of employment. I understand why they want patients in trivex/poly but if the patient is complaining about price, I would like to give them the...

Most of the progressives were properly ordered. Those that "suffer" were those in SV lenses (private pay). Those that were seeking price match with another place might end up with a low end...

Looking at a previous thread about online rx purchases, I am curious to how widespread unethical business practices are within the optical industry or am I just a picky person that nitpicks about...

I have to wonder about repeat customers. I've been tempted to buy frames (not Rx) from one of the online retailers because they are cheaper and I do not have an account with all vendors. With that...

They look like Tom Fords but I don't see the 'T' in the pic.

Since I'm new to my current job, I've been pouring over the brochures and websites related to the products we carry. I ask a lot of lifestyle questions from the time they step into the exam room and...

I've used knee high stockings as well as what I can assume is a paint bag strainer that is currently attached. The advantage of the bag is that I can empty and reuse but I like the flexibility of the...

First of all, hello to everyone! I'm only recently getting back to working with patients again after quite a while (change of profession, school, etc) and I've taken a position in a smaller doctor's...

Prior to my most recent job, I was at a small chain that had a central finishing lab where it appeared half of the staff were on autopilot. They weren't experienced and there was little time to train...

I can't say that I've seen many problems with progressives except when there isn't enough experienced staff. While most of my experience is in lab work, the ability to discuss lenses and fitting...

I remember my first optical job included tinting almost everything. Thankfully, AR has stopped most of that and my current tint unit hasn't been used since I started. It wouldn't be so bad if I had...
