Not sure why they say there is a shortage of OD's, as there seems to be plenty to work for half, or less, than usual fee. I am just a bottom of the pole optician, 41 years, and have done well at regular fees, based on my service. Ask Barry, Craig, or Robert how we survive. I don't worry about the ones I might not attrack, I work on the ones I can attrack after problems, lousy glasses, whatever, or on my personal service. I can't be all things to all people, and Walmart customers are typically not who I see.
Markets vary, I moved to get away, and succeed. Most won't, or can't, we all have our game plan, no real universal right or wrong. We do what we have to, I just choose to keep the "lady", on the other side of my door.
