Looking for a New Yorker.....

[Chad Huber]

....Ok, So I'm not personally looking for a New Yorker...I have a Texas Girl now and she's just fine ;)

Anyway, what I am looking for is a GOOD Optician in the New York City area to refer a pt to. Preferably someone who works with the Silhouette Titan frame line. I have a pt that just moved there and needs not only someone GOOD to adjust his glasses (Titan 2nd gen) but also a source for high fashion sunglasses (an artist who likes to spoil himself...lol)

If anyone out there knows of anybody who fits the bill, please let me know.

Well, Chad. I was sorry to read your post after such an encouraging subject line. You see, I had the net all ready to round-up our New Yorkers to drive down to you!

Perhaps we could ship some to your patient anyway....

Hi Texas.
NY may not be quite as big as Texas, but It your customer may want someone who is near where they are moving to. You didn't say where in NY. If They're relocating to Long Island, we do a lot with Silhouette Titans here at Optics Plus (Woodbury). But have no fear. We do have a lot of excellant competition in NY. Your patient can contact NYS Society of Opticians (518 463-8644) for a list of members in their area, or contact Silhouette for a list of their dealers.
Hope this helps

There are few cohens opticals in the NYC
They all private
All owned by different people
Some owned by people who have no clue in optics
How can you say they all good?
I hope they would be all gooooooddd
