    It was just posted on our national opticians FB page. Tons of shares and likes. No incredulous sarcastic remarks.

    They must be thinking of the "helpful, innovative, high-quality" Essilor that throws money around to optical organizations.

    We're thinking of the "evil, deregulation-intending, monopolistic, duplicitous" Essilor.

    Go figure.

    I guess that little press release has placated everyone and fixed everything. Damned those charming wordsmiths!

    This is wonderfull. And when E owns retail optical stores, they can say order online from us and then pick them up at our retail store (disquised by other name) and have them fitted as we advised.
