    Optometrists are usually independent contractors. They have nothing to do with the pricing of eyeglasses sold at the shops they work in. And most people just use them to get their prescription so they can order the glasses/contacts online at much lower prices.

      I mean yeah, but it’s the same as doctors not being in control of drug prices. What I meant was that you’re putting yourself in an environment where you’re only going to be further radicalized by seeing just how many people can’t afford the cost of sight. And good luck trying to tell people to get them cheaper online, as I’m sure the store you’d be working in wouldn’t really like it if you started sending people away from their profits.
