Default Do old -style opticians cut lenses on premises [OT]

Regarding the UK ...

Do the old style optician shops (one-man-&-receptionist who test eyes
and dispense specs) usually cut the lens to fit the frame actually ON
THE PREMISES?

Or, in the case of these small opticians, is cutting the lenses to shape
something which would usually be done by some external company that
probably supplied the lenses?

My optician certainly does (single shop, not a chain). Fascinating to
watch and the glass dust is weird
