Local source of eyeglasses

[hikermtnbiker.livejournal.com]

I finally have to admit to myself that cheaters no longer work and I need proper reading glasses. What recommendations do you all have for a local eyeglass store?

As a first time eyeglass wearer I'm mostly interested in a shop that will take the time to help me select the right kind of lenses for my usage and get the prescription fine tuned. I'm less concerned about a wide selection of frame styles. I'm no fashion plate.

Has anyone tried the place on Elm across from Posto?

Gah, that sucks! I never used them as eye doctors - I go to Harvard Vanguard for my opthalmologist - so there wasn't any possibility of trying to milk extra insurance money when I was just going to get glasses. That is a real bummer to learn about them though.

Maybe the lesson is, every place is going to be icky sometime. I hope not, but...
