Although that was nice to hear, I had to ask if there was a prescription for new glasses - did my eyes change from last year? Only at that point did he mention I could pick up a prescription on my way out --- and that it hadn't changed too much. I wasn't impressed.

Is this typical?

They are like going to your reg. family doctor now a days. The doctor doesn't weigh you, or take your blood pressure. If you have questions then make them answer them.
Dr Zeini I thought was an exceptional eye doctor and did both my cataract surgeries and I have been very pleased.
If you are just getting new glasses then I guess any optician can check your eyes and prescribe new glasses.
