Are ophthalmologists better with vision testing than Pearle Vision eye doctors?
I'm currently 25 years old and I used to go to this eye doctor at Pearle Vision because I'm near sighted. Every two year I go to her for checkup and she ALWAYS changes the prescription each time I go. She claims my vision is getting slightly worse overtime, so she needs to make the prescription a little stronger so I can see a little better. I have a nice collection of old glasses because she's always changing the prescription every two years. Well, after my last prescription with her got me dizzy and she got cranky on me because I questioned the prescription, I decided to go to an ophthalmologist the following year. He was very highly recommended by my physician. When I went to him, he had to change the prescription a little bit and oddly enough, it was very different than what the Pearle Vision doctor prescribed. So I got another new pair of glasses that year. Now, two years later, I went to back to this ophthalmologist for my checkup and guess what? He said everything is ok and there was no change on my prescription. So, I get to continue wearing the same glasses that he prescribed two year ago.I was shocked that for the first time in over a decade, I've never had a change in my prescription. When I told my friend about it, he told me that the reason why that Pearle Vision eyedoctor kept changing my prescription is because they just want to make money since she works at Pearle Vision and they're in the business of selling eyeglasses. Since ophthalmologists don't make money selling glasses, they're not going to change the prescription if it's not necessary.Is my friend right? Is it better that I go to an ophthalmologist now rather than one of those Pearle Vision eye doctors?
