Are you telling me that you don't see this type of technology usurping opticians in the future? When these borgs have inter-active capability, the ability to suggest lens materials based on Rx and frames selection, make suggestions of and explain benifits of adding treatments, take measurements and adjust those measurements for panto, ergonomics, ect., can't you imagine many locations wanting to supplant their skilled opticians with "the machine"?
Will this *future* technology further the need for skilled opticians, or deminish the need?
