I get a lot of phone calls at my office asking the difference between a "free" sight test at an optical store versus a comprehensive eye exam from an optometrist's office.

"Why should I pay for an 'eye exam' when I can get one for free at the place that makes my glasses?"

Many people don't understand there is a large difference between a vision screener and a thorough eye exam...

Really enjoyed reading "What is the Difference Between a "Free" Eye Exam and a Comprehensive Eye Exam?", and the structure made the key ideas easy to follow. The part around youtube thumbnail downloader really stood out to me. Looking forward to reading more like this.
