I lost my favorite prescription sunglasses at the Oticon Reveal launch event, so it was time for an eye exam and a replacement pair. But why would I go back to LensCrafters instead of a private practice vision clinic? Because they did something NONE of the private practice vision clinics I visited had done: they took additional measurements to verify how my prescription lenses would align with my eyes in the frames I actually wear. They also took the time to get the physical fit right. Those details matter. Having a prescription is one thing. Making sure that prescription is properly incorporated into something you wear every day is another. As an audiologist, I see a direct parallel with hearing aids and the importance of verifying your fitting with Real Ear Measurement. I own a private practice, but private practice alone does NOT guarantee better care. In my experience, LensCrafters delivered a level of attention and verification that those private clinics did not—and that’s why I went back. Come along for an eye exam, some glasses shopping, and a behind-the-scenes look at how I vet hearing care professionals for the HearingUp Network.
