Description

Operational Details
A customer may take an optical prescription and shop different optical dispensaries where they may purchase glasses or contact lenses. Lens fabrication labs are often on-site to create the lenses which will be placed into the selected frames. Once the glasses are complete they are adjusted to fit the customer comfortably. The optical outlet may also sell contact lens and associated eye care products such as glass cleaners, and drops for the eyes.
