    Did you hear the one about the optician who fell into the lens grinder? He made a spectacle of himself.:p
    ...Just ask me...

    You know you've been an optician too long if......

    You can act genuinely conserned when a patient tells that their plastic lenses are scratched......

    Favorite Optical Joke

    Forgive me if you've heard this one (I may have told it before)...

    Sol had lived a long life, which was drawing to its end. As his family surrounded him on his deathbed, he asked to see his optometrist.

    "Optometrist?" they asked. "Why in the world do you want to see your optometrist?"

    "Just get him for me."

    So they go get Dr. Kaplan, who, on seeing Sol about to depart this life, asked, "Sol, it pains me to see you like this. What can I possibly do for you?"

    Sol opened his eyes slightly and said, "Doc, before I go, there's one thing I have to know. Which one was clearer - A or B?"

    Big Smile Spots.......................

    Seeing Spots


    Patient: I always see spots before my eyes.

    Optician: Didn't the new glasses help?


    Patient: Sure, now I see the spots much clearer

    Redhot Jumper Progressive..........................

    Progressive Lenses

    A man went to an eye specialist to get his eyes tested and asked, "Doctor, will I be able to read after wearing glasses?"

    "Yes, of course," said the doctor, "why not!"

    "Oh! How nice it would be," said the patient with joy, "I have been illiterate for so long."

    Poor eye sight

    A young women visited her optometrist complaining of failing eyesight. The optician sat her in front of a standard eye chart.

    optometrist : "Can you read the bottom line?"

    Girl: "No."

    optometrist : "Can you read the center line?"

    Girl: "No."

    optometrist : "Can you read the large top line?"

    Girl: "No."

    optometrist (getting frustrated): "Can you even see the chart?"

    Girl: "No."

    The optometrist is clearly frustrated and whips his ********* out of his pants.

    optometrist : "Can you see this?"

    Girl: "Of course!"

    optometrist : "Well, there's your problem -- you're ****-eyed!"

    I did have a chuckle the other day when a customer said "how much do I owe you for the screw?" It is an old joke, but I almost said $500.

    I know I am going to get into trouble with this but...

    One day I was caught in traffic and late to see my first patient for a contact lens check-up with a slit-lamp.
    A young woman was already impatiently in the exam chair. Usually I politely ask the patient to uncross thier legs (Arm slit-lamp is on will hit the knee most uncomfortably with legs crossed).
    However on this occasion I was quite late and not thinking. I said: "Please uncross your legs so I can look at you with the microscope."
    The young lady was appearently somewhat of a swinger and replied: "I've had a lot of men ask me to do that, but you're the first one who wanted to look at it with a microscope first."

    Chip:cheers:

    Patients come in all the time embarrased that they sat on their glasses. After readjusting them I bring them out and tell them not to do it again. "Besides" I'll say. "It's a waste of time. Didn't your mother teach you that hindsight is 20/20" :bbg:

    Also if they step on them I'll say they now have "sole".

    A comedienne told one on TV a few years ago that I never forgot;

    Dated an Optometrist once but I had to break it off. Whenever we were making love he had to keep asking "Which is better? This? or this?" ;)

    Man walks into an opticians with a shoe box. The lady behind the counter asks if she can help him. He opens the box to reveal a 12 inch long turd.
    "You should see a doctor, this is an opticians !"
    "Yes, but every time I do one of these, my eyes water"

    I’ve always liked the sign that announces:

    A man goes to the eye doctor. The receptionist asks him why he is there. The man complains, 'I keep seeing spots in front of my eyes.'

    The receptionist asks, 'Have you ever seen a doctor?' and the man replies, 'No, just spots.'
