We are committed to renewed excellence
in the dispensing of prescription eyewear.
Our mission is to re-humanize the
delivery of prescription eyewear.

If you do not touch the consumer at the time
you dispense their eyewear, you act more as an
unskilled eyeglass merchant than as an Optician.

Patients deserve a pleasant experience.
Patient
s deserve as much time as they need.
Patient
s deserve custom-fitted prescription eyewear.

There is no right or wrong way to dispense eyewear.
There is only the Patient's way. Therefore, take as
much time as needed to customize their eyewear.

What are the chances of today's eyewear consumers getting a
hands-on, customized fitting of their prescription eyewear? If you
answered this question correctly, you know why they buy online.

More and more eyewear is being purchased online.
The number one complaint of brick-and-mortar patrons ...
"Nobody adjusted my glasses. They just handed them to me."
So, for these consumers there's little difference between the service
they receive in many of today's dispensaries and buying glasses online.

Just as a Dentist cannot practice dentistry without direct Patient contact, the
Optician cannot effectively dispense without tactile contact with the Patient.
An unskilled eyewear merchant routinely hands over prescription glasses
with no hands-on assessment, nor the appropriate ‘touch-and-feel’ required
to custom fit the eyewear. Hands-on-the-Patient Opticians however, determine
for themselves by sense of touch how the frame feels in lieu of asking the Patient.

 

As a senior Ophthalmic Health Care Professional, founder of OpticalCourse.com, and instructor for OpticalWorkshops.com, I am interested in sharing my experience in the dispensing of prescription eyewear using Hands-on-the-Patient skills. If you are a Practitioner who recognizes the decades-old decline in these dispensing skills and you are in need of additional training or consultation, or you need assistance in order to regain market share and improve the profitability of your practice, please visit these sites, OpticianryToday.com and OpticalWorkshops.com for more details, then contact me here, or 407-628-4443 to discuss and-or arrange a Workshop session for your staff. Together, we can get consumers coming back to your dispensary!

Books, lectures and tests can take an Optician's skills only so far.


It is time for direct, touch-and-feel, Hands-on-the-Patient tactile training to happen.
Only one-on-one craftsmanship training does this. It cannot be learned virtually.

HANDS-ON-THE-PATIENT WORKSHOP TRAINING AVAILABLE HERE
"Opticianry is defined by how well the eyewear fits the patient."

American Board of Opticianry accredited and Florida State Board approved workshops
for Intermediate and Advanced Level Opticians in Hands-on-the-Patient Frame Fitting are
now being offered under the sponsorship of POF, the Professional Opticians of Florida.
Those professionals interested in attending similar workshops should inquire here.
