    Overall it seemed to be a well-written article. One of very few that state we are actually professionals in our field.

    Kinda refreshing to know not everyone on the web is totally against us.
    A lack of planning on your part DOES NOT constitute an emergency on mine!

    At least they had the decency to not hop on the internet glasses bandwagon:

    No matter where you shop for glasses, though, be sure your lenses are ground and fitted by a professional optician. To verify that you're dealing with a reputable outfit, look for technicians who have been certified by the American Board of Opticianry/National Contact Lens Examiners, which requires rigorous testing.
