Florida has three types of licensed eye care professionals: Optometrists, Opticians, and Ophthalmologists. In our view, private practices generally offer superior care. Optician-owned practices often deliver the best service as they are small, personable, and have low overhead costs, which allows them to pass savings on to their patients. Most independent private Optician offices have Optometrists or Ophthalmologists available to conduct eye exams for the convenience of their clients.
The range of frames is often superior, and many opticians focus on services such as contact lenses or optics for low vision. They are well-versed in special requirements like prisms or custom-made lenses that offer sharper vision. These services must be conducted in person. Customers cannot fully appreciate the beauty of designer frames, including their colors or the tactile sensations such as smoothness or temperature, without seeing them firsthand. Additionally, various materials might feel uncomfortable or uninviting to different individuals. There's no substitute for trying on frames in person!
