  1. Kennt jemand in #Berlin (oder nördliches Umland, #Bernau oder #Oranienburg z.b.) ein:e #Optometrist:in oder #Optiker:in der/die #Sehstärkenbestimmung bei einer kooperativen elfjährigen OHNE Tropfen macht?

  2. I took a pic of the Phoropter while waiting for the optometrist. I've got an updated eyeglass prescription and next comes the hard part: shopping for new frames

  3. Fehlende #Fachärzte werden bei uns langsam wirtschaftlich relevant. Warum? Hilfesuchende kommen zu uns traditionellen #Augenoptiker*Innen in der Hoffnung, dass wir ihre medizinischen Probleme lösen. Selbst die klinischen #Optometrist*Innen unter uns, die es könnten, dürfen das in Deutschland aber nicht. So entsteht unbezahlte Arbeit und die Kund*Innen müssen wir wieder wegschicken. Das geht mir zusehends auf den Sender 😡

  7. Van Gogh wasn't big on ear health, but he never missed an eye appointment. I got checked out, bought contacts, and waded through the glasses. I STILL need to replace my college frames and lenses.

  9. The latest upsell at the #optometrist is "myopia control" lenses for kids.

    The idea is to slow the progression of #myopia (nearsightedness). About $300 more per pair. Gotta wear them till at least 18 starting at age 8-12.

    But if your kid's like mine & might only need them sometimes... you now HAVE to wear them all the time.

    They also reduce your peripheral vision through the lenses.

    And at $300 per pair, say you buy new ones every couple years, that's around $1500 more.

  11. PSA to all #COVID cautious fellow travellers:

    Don't wear an elastomeric respirator to an eye exam. There's so little room between my face and optometric machinery, that they kept bumping up against my elastomeric. The #optometrist had to resort to old fashioned backups. #COVID19

    What does the bottom left section (the same icon rotated to look like EWM etc) test for? Is it a specific eye complaint or just general?

  15. The fascinating thing for me was that the green dot had colour separated by having a yellow edge and a blue edge around opposite halves of the dot... 💛💚💙

    Not only that, around the outer edge of the white area (which was circular too), the yellow and blue semi-circle edges were there... just reversed!! 😮

  17. Any #optometrist on Mastodon that can give some insight on how #VisionPro will affect our eyes?

  18. Finally got back to the #optometrist to pick up my new reading #glasses & there’s something wrong with the prescription - each eye individually fine but together they seem to be massively screwed up - anyone else had this? It’s been nearly an hour since I tried them on for about 2 mins & only just starting to feel like my left eye isn’t being twisted with a wrench. Headache receding too. So I have a new appointment to be retested. In a month because all is chaos & the calendar is full

  24. Any #Optometrist #Augenoptiker here? I’m trying to understand ‚ADD’ as used on prescriptions in the UK. I just got an artificial lens in my second eye and have lost the magic ability to focus very close that comes with being strongly short sighted… I did some math and worked out that 1/ADD should be the focal distance of near sight glasses? Is that correct? It doesn’t quite match with what I measure for the other eye, but it’s difficult to be exact…

  25. I'm so mad at my #eye #doctor. The technician did the #vision exam and came up with the prescription for my new #eyeglasses, doc just signed it.

    Doc only looked at the eyes for a few minutes after they were dilated. First time seeing him because of #insurance provider issues.

    My script changed so much that I was concerned, and I mentioned it seemed way off. He shrugged me off.

    They only do the exam.

    I got my eyeglasses today and they are so off you can't see through them

    With all the lights from the media rigs, cameras, etc, of course there will be shadows and he will probably see it.

    Also, how is his vision? When was it tested last? Does #PunxsutawneyPhil see a #rodent #Ophthalmologist or #optometrist on a regular basis?

    Between the bright lights from the media rigs and uncertainty of his vision, I say it was a #RiggedGroundHogDay #GroundHogDay

  29. I have clearly stated multiple times that there are certain companies in #SiliconValley that I will _NEVER_ have an account at nor will work for due to their #LackOfEthics when it comes to their #CriminalEnterprise of #BadToS & #CorporateEspionage as their focus due to #ForcedConsent and #ForcedImplants that are embedded in their #RightEye revealed easily with current technology at your #optometrist. 🔎👀🔍🧐
