Have you ever walked into an outlet like OPSM, Specsavers, Bailey Nelson, or Laubman & Pank for an eye test and left feeling like you’d been gently pressured into spending $500 on a pair of glasses?
…
[B]osses impose onto optometrists a variety of targets – whether its “converting” eye tests into sales or increasing rates of certain types of tests.
This type of pressure is reportedly causing many optometrists “significant moral distress” and some are starting to fight back.
My spec savers store has never been pushy. Me and all my kids need glasses, we go every year for a check but only get a pair roughly every 3 years because they tell us there’s no point getting another pair yet.
