 | I would like to go to optometry school but I don't think I can afford it. I don't want to be paying off loans for the rest of my life. Is being an optician a good alternative?? If anyone could tell me about the field I would appreciate it.

 | Sorry if this is a supid question to any optical experts out there. I am planning on applying for a job for one at my local Specsavers. The job description seems to be that of a regular store assistant, but i don't want to apply and then find out previous experience is needed. Thanks!

 | Within a week or two I'll be applying to study optometry to be an optician. Ideally, I'd like to work in a hospital rather than in a store, but for now I'm quite open to suggestions. The pay over the years has dropped by quite a lot, but I'm fascinated my human biology, especially eyes, so it's a career I'd love to go into.
Any personal experiences or friends/family that work as optometrists? What adivce/knowledge could you provide me with?
Thanks very much!

| Okay so I have been to my eyeglasses place twice because as you know plastic frames stretch and need adjusting once in a while. The first time they did a bad job and the second time they did an even worse job. I don't want to go back and have either of the two ladies that did a bad job try to do it again. I'm pretty sure it's against the warranty to go somewhere else and have them fix them. Should I call and ask to talk to the manager or something? Please help!

 | I have a prescription for a cerain brand of contacts - the expensive ones. I want to buy some less expensive Acuvue. A friend of mine bought some online - and says that he could get any brand that he wants - it's just the size specs that only matters. Are the people working at the opticians centers trying to just make me buy the more expensive ones, by making reasons/excuses about the prescription? One girl who worked there, said that if I wanted to change brands - I'd have to be examined again and pay for another exam!! What does the law say? Who is the authority on the power of contact lens prescriptions and the brands of the products - to choose by the consumer?

 | I'm looking forward to a bright future, and I definitely see myself working with the human body. I'm most fascinated with the eyes, and I was wondering what jobs are available that deals with eyes and which are most efficient. Like, maybe one where I help patients find out if they should prescribe for glasses or something.

| I want to reshape this single non-prescription lens I have to fit into these other sun-glasses. I already have a lens that fits into the glasses, but I removed them because they are the wrong color. I have the right color lens(but wrong size) but want to reshape them so they are the same exact size and shape of the wrong-color lens(its a single lens) I removed. How can I do this? What kind of tools can I use or should I just go to an optician?
