I have had my glasses for close to four years. They've been through absolutely everything and at some point I really should buy some new ones.
I went to the local optical and was shocked at how much he wanted for new frames and lenses. I have gone locally for years because the service was good and the selection was pretty decent.
The most recent time I went to the optical I was put off by the way I was treated. It was packed and the owner was anything but friendly and accomodative!
Getting glasses for me is a real treat and I deserve good customer service! Many times that's what I pay for!
I've looked online and the place that keeps coming up is Zenni Optical. THey are ranked #1 on the internet. Not only are they recommended for having great customer service but their prices and styles can't be beat!
There's actually a bulletin board where opticians and optical owners go on and they talk about being upset about the new surge of online opticals. They feel that they're losing out of money and losing clients. SO, they're trying to charge to give readings so that people stay with them. It's just outright dishonest.
Maybe I'll just ask Santa for a new pair of eyeglasses and call it a day. I'm way too practical and this gift might just put my birthday gift of a toilet and trash basket to shame!
