View submission: Are opticians just glorified salesman's now?

What exactly do you want them to do about the issues you’ve raised that seem to cause you no issues (as you’ve confirmed)?

Honestly, they don’t want to sell you empty frames, so I presume you have a lense prescription at least? And yes, unless you are clear that you don’t want new frames the ‘salespeople’ will assume you want new frames and will attempt to assist you in choosing some. If your current frames are more than a few years old it’s probably not a bad idea to get new ones.

I have a stupidly high glasses prescription, the lenses of which seriously reduce my choice of frames. I *need* assistance from the FoH guys if I am to change my frames.
