When we think about what we do as opticians, the list might look something like this: sell glasses, check in glasses, dispense glasses, choose frames for the office, clean all the frames, etc. In reality, we improve the quality of life of our patients. They trust us. They trust us to be educated. They trust us to build them glasses that will make their lives better. 

Think about the smile on a patient’s face when they see clearly for the first time. That is a life-changing moment. 

That is what we do as opticians - we change lives everyday.
