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.

My recommendation is for Ocala Eye, Laurel Manor, and Dr. Menjivar.
I had an emergency issue with my contacts and he was able to see me and provide care within the day. Have been back several times and think he is one of the best eye care providers I've ever had.

I would recommend any of the doctors at Ocala Eye. I've been going there for 9 years, have a very complicated prescription and have never been dissatisfied. I was referred to Dr Polack by my eye doctor @ Rush Presby in Chicago. If I need a new eyeglass prescription I go to Dr Menjivar.
