Do old -style opticians cut lenses on premises [OT]
"raden" wrote in message ... In message , Chris writes "Jaxx" wrote in message ... [off topic] 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 Glass ? -- geoff Yeah - when I watched (a few years back) most lenses were still glass. I still wear glass lenses where possible |
