    Billy Brock

    Can anyone tell me if Billy Brock is still in business? I've called several times and get a generic computer generated message advising that "We are not available at this time. Please try again later."
    The number I called is 817.921.9217.
    TIA,
    Bob

    I can't locate them

    I sent a job to Billy Brock in December without tracking as I have done for decades. It never came back. They never answered emails or phone calls. I suspect they just don't exist anymore. Too bad, my patient loved them. Any alternatives for jeweled lenses?

    I just tried to call his local phone # here in Fort Worth and got a generic recording to try again later.

    Mount the stones yourself?? It really isn't hard once you try.

    Finally, I just heard from an Optician in Pa. that knows him and his family. Billy has retired and is helping with sick in-laws. His site's still up but he's not not doing his amazing work anymore. It's a shame because there a very few left that does what he does. Billy, if you read this, the optical world will sorely miss your work, but I hope you can enjoy your much deserved retirement. Cheers!
