My Dad, and most private opticians will bend over backwards to please a cus-
tomer, both before and after the sale.  This includes free adjustments, even
for eyewear not bought at his store.  I know that many times, my  Dad  would
sacrifice profit just to make the customer happy.  You just don't  get  this
kind of service at a chain operation.

I disagree. When my frames got bent up after a collision with a volleyball,
I went into Pearle and they straightened them out at no charge. Also, when I
used to get glasses from the opthalmologist, it would take a couple of
weeks. Pearle has always given us same-day service.
