Who is an optometrist and what does he or she do?

Why do eyeglasses cost so much?
Eyeglasses are a complex optical device that is manufactured with high-precision equipment. Often expensive materials are used for the glasses. All of this explains why eyeglasses can be expensive.
What should you do before buying glasses?
Let's look at what to look for when buying eyeglasses. The first is, of course, quality. The second is the choice of lenses of glasses. Here we focus attention on the material: they can be either glass or plastic. The third is the choice of frames.
What's the difference between expensive glasses and cheap glasses for vision?
The quality and accordingly the price of the lens depends on the presence of coatings on the lenses. The higher the price, the more coatings on the lens. Coatings make our vision more comfortable. Lens manufacturers do not stand still and improve the quality of lenses.
How do I know which glasses fit my face?
It's best if the width of the frame is equal to or slightly larger than the widest part of your face. The upper line of the frames should coincide with the line of eyebrows. Smooth shapes of glasses will emphasize rounded curves of the face. To emphasize high cheekbones choose the "butterfly" or "cat-eye" glasses.
Where can I see better with glasses or contact lenses?
With lenses, you can see better, so it turns out that extra obstacles don't distort the image. Lenses don't shed dust, don't catch glare from the sun and don't distort peripheral vision-no matter where we look, the image stays sharp.

David Grapshi | Rating: 1 | Broadway Eyeworks
I have purchased as may as a dozen set of frames and lenses over the years and have to say they are the WORST customer service oriented company I think I ever dealt with. If you like some of the frames they carry, then go somewhere else to buy. They would not consider taking care of an expensive BEVEL titanium frame that the paint is chipping, because I did not purchase in the past year. How dumb can these people be as to not take care of a customer who has been doing business with them as long, even in the old location. Any sort of compensation would have been considered on my part....but NO....sticking to their policy. If I could give them a minus star I would.

My visits are always very professional. The staff “Fran” is always very patient with trying to figure out which glasses look best on you. I do wish the cost of the machine that can help unblock you your eye ducts was more affordable. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Wendy Aliotti
Amandarusk | Rating: 5 | Dr. May-May Chan
Dr. Chan was fantastic! Professional, personable, knowledgable, efficient and funny! I enjoyed my experience thoroughly and left with what I felt was the perfect amount of information. Love her!
Denise Desiree | Rating: 5 | Eastridge Optometry, provider of Eyexam of CA
Dr. Whitney! Such a great doctor! Needed new specs and with such a caring team at this location it was a breeze. Found exactly what I wanted. Large selection and many different styles. The exam is short and sweet and easier to comprehend. I was able to buy one pair and 50% off second pair. Excellent.
Mark Cabral | Rating: 5 | Diablo Valley Optometric Group - Dr. Michael Ottati
Dr. Ottati and his staff are professional and efficient. I feel as if I am receiving the best eye care available and I am provided the opportunity to select advance diagnostics if I so desire. Dr. Ottati takes the time to explain what he is seeing and any changes in my vision and probable causes/opportunities to improve my eye help. I couldn't be happier, nor recommend more highly.
