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.

Tammi Morris | Rating: 5 | Dr. John Yoder
Dr. Yoder is wonderful! So patient and professional. I’d rather not go to any other eye doctor. This was my 10 year old daughters first experience with Dr. Yoder. She was extremely nervous from previous check ups. He put her at ease, answered all of her questions and explained things clearly for her without talking down to her. I highly recommend!

People are very friendly except for the optometrist who wasn't the nicest one I've ever met not much of a bedside manner, but the folks who work up front and help you with your glasses very nice the doctor could learn from them on how to treat people

Just got an exam and two pairs of glasses. Doctor Faye was very kind and took her time to make sure my prescription was as accurate as possible. Everyone was kind, polite and professional. Very inexpensive prices too. No complaints whatsoever.

Dr. Bartholomew was wonderful. He listened to my concerns and was very genuine. However, the woman working in the shop were rude, ignored me, forgot to give the Dr. my chart and then after my exam continued to blow me off.
