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.

I was very pleased with the staff and the doctor. Staff were efficient and friendly.Dr Ciotti was thorough, he explained everything precisely and he was kind and personable. I would definitely recommend him and I will definitely go back to him. Thank you for making my eye exam so easy.

Was really happy with the eye exam. Was not happy afterwards. They basically pushed you right into their showroom with a very limited selection and very HIGH prices. I just asked for my prescription so I could go elsewhere and got the run around at getting it. They insisted I needed Transition Lens and after going back 4 times in 3 months they finally said... gee why don't we just give you plain biofocals. Of course it was way past when they could give me any refund between the difference in price of the two set of lens. An invisible bifocal would have been more near the cost but no. Will NOT be going back to this place.

Myself & my children have been coming here for years and have never once had any issue with the docs, techs or front office staff. Today, however, that changed. We normally just get our eye exams and then will purchase glasses and contacts online as it’s significantly cheaper. Since the techs and docs usually understand this, they provide us with a pupillary distance measurement to make sure the glasses fit. It takes less than one minute. We have had this done multiple times with no issues. Actually it was one of the docs who suggested it many moons ago. Today when I asked? I got push back from the front desk workers and the tech. All three said that’s “not something we do.” Um, yes, it is. Because we get it done each time. Instead of just breaking out the little measuring apparatus or using a ruler (both which we have had them do before) they argued about it, spending more time telling me why they couldn’t than just being helpful. I wasn’t asking for myself. I was asking them to measure for my youngest teen daughter as this would be her first pair of glasses, but all were either too lazy or too stubborn to want to be helpful. I will say, Dr. Mara was great.

The customer service is not good. The employees at the front look like they don't want to be there. The doctor took forever to see. I was waiting in the room for like 20 minutes. And they never answer the phone. The only good is that the sales associate was very nice and friendly. He deserves 5 stars. But every body else
