What is the best Optical store, I've never been.?

Question

I read a lot and sometimes my vision gets a little blurry when I'm tired or I'm speaking to a large group. I'm afraid to go for an optical exam because I've heard they make mistakes on your prescription. Does anyone have a good experience to share? I was thinking of going to Sears optical - has anyone tried them?

Answer 1

You should go see an Optometrist, not an Optician.

The optometrist is a specialised eye doctor. They know their stuff.

The optician is knowledgeable in corrective eyewear, but cannot prescribe the right strength.
