, now that I recall, is the gal at Moran Eye Center sent me there. Even though I couldn't use my insurance there, she told they would be cheaper than what I wanted Moran to do....I 've used them ever since.

Don't like that you have to buy a package of 30 exams. But it's cheaper per exam

^^^^ I don't like the sound of this at all. Is this everywhere?

It works for us because we have a big family and a package of 30 pretty much

TNT is going to guess the glasses they give you are enormous but cheap

Disagree on the low skills assumption

I bet its a great choice if you don't want the burden of running a practice.

That's definitely one of the pros of working in a big box.
