It's getting more prevalent

Good point, for sure.

If patients want to walk around with their glasses slipping down their faces, they don't have to pay.

If patients want me to order PALs for their stupid-@$$ "Pair Eyeware" that they bought on YouTube, then they're going to need me to adjust the mother before I can determine POW for designing and ordering their +4.00-2.00x153 +2.50 add 2^BO lenses!

IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S ABSOLUTELY POINTLESS TO WORK WITH LENS DESIGN WITHOUT WORKING WITH THE FREAKING DEVICE THAT POSITIONS THE LENS!!!!


Now I'm mad.

Don't throw rocks at me, but I actually bought a frame and some magnetic clips from Pair Eyewear and had the lenses made through my lab. They're not the most high end but they were decent for the price point (under $100.) I don't wear them at work of course. I have people ask if we sell them on a weekly basis though.

It's that cute commercial, isn't it. I can't watch YouTube without seeing that cheesy housewife.

On the other side of the coin, someone is visiting from out of town and stumbles upon your office. They find a frame they love and want to purchase it and have their hometown optician make lenses for them. Since you have incorporated some dispensing fees into the cost of the frame, are you going to deduct that $50??

From a fairness perspective, some of it should be forwarded to the other optician. Not going to happen, but it would be nice.
