About This Video: Optometrist, Dr. Vijay Shenai, describes a few differences between online eye exams for glasses and in-person eye exams. Few of the cons of performing an online vision assessment can result in inadequate glasses or contact lens prescriptions. You will learn that seeing an optometrist or ophthalmologist will not only help you feel confident that you received a correct prescription but also assure you that your eyes received a complete health evaluation.

I though I had found a great eye doctor, she was friendly, knowledgeable, has every test you can do and imaging, is like $115 bucks for the everything exam with the imaging but the problem that seems to be everywhere around me with other doctors I have talked to or seen, they all have eye glass salespeople in their office and push really hard on you buying their $500 glasses. I told her that I just wanted my prescription and she was like "why are you going to buy glasses online?" so she went from nice to rude because I didn't want to buy glasses. I just want a eye doctor and a prescription not a pushy rude salesperson, she even talked about how high her rent is, even charges $55 to get your PD.....
. a good eye doctor is like searching for bigfoot.
I get it! Eye exams are one thing that should be done in-person. But where you purchase your glasses/contacts/or anything else prescribed will always be up to you. I will say that we get a lot of business from poor quality glasses from online stores, so I will try to explain to my patient why I would not recommend going online for glasses, especially if they have moderate-high prescriptions, astigmatism, and/or progressives, becuase I feel like it's my duty to fight for my patient's best interest, but I understand that it can could across as a lecture or condemnation as opposed to advice and concern. I hope you are able to give your eye doctor the benefit of the doubt and take it as she is trying to help and protect you. Also the costs involved with in-store glasses comes from the quality of the frames/lenses and assurance you get with it. Our office fights insurance companies and labs for our patients to get better warrantees and replacements parts and lenses when needed. Most online stores will not. Hope this helps!!
The sales people were probably the worst part. I was traumatized as a kid with one lady even yelling at me and my mom. There were other times where sales ladies would insult the other customers choice of glasses. One time they even wouldn't let me pick the model I wanted. I have been to many different places f or eye care and still have yet to find a decent one 😢
@@Nero-was-Right that's too bad. There is a fine balance between providing professional advice with gentleness and acting like a pushy, obnoxious sales person.
@@Nero-was-Right I’m right there with you! Sales people are more pushy with selling glasses than selling cars! Been hating it since 1995!
I wish I could afford an eye exam and a good pair of glasses.
Unfortunately, many are unable to afford routine health care, and there are cheaper options to get new prescriptions online without a health check, but most sight threatening problems that I see in our office are from those who only see me when there is a problem. Most eye exams do not cost more than $100 in my area, so if I were put $10 per month in a jar each year, then I could have enough for the exam and a cheaper pair of glasses if needed. Not sure where you live or if you could affort putting aside $10 a month, but taking care of our health now will prevent major problems in the future.
My suggestion is a Walmart exam and then buy glasses from Zenni
What a great video Dr. Shenai!! This is very informative and I learned quite a few things I didn't know about online exams. This is something everyone needs to see!!
For sure! It's seemed kind of wrong watching my wife complete the exam. Lol, but we don't know until we find out.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent job, Dr. Shenai!
Thank you so much, Michelle!!
You have so many pairs of glasses! And they all look amazing on you!
I just wanted to say that I received an eye exam from an eye mart express near my home and got two pairs of glasses made with that eye exam. Now when I received my new glasses I could see fine at a distance with my new glasses but couldn’t see things up close with them on. The thing I thought was strange was the glasses I replaced I didn’t have that problem with. When I went back and tried to explain to them that I thought there was something wrong they refused to do anything about it. Stating that it was because of my eyes aging. Which didn’t make any sense to me that my eyes would have aged over night or that one pair of glasses would allow me to see both far and near but not my updated ones. So I feel like sometimes you can get a bad eye exam in person also. I had to deal with using my new glasses because I had paid almost $400 for the two pairs that I got. Any thoughts?
Sorry you had that experience, Ted. Just like any profession, you have places you go to because you're in a pinch, and you have other places that will bend over backwards to make you happy. There are a few things that may be affecting your vision, but the fact that you can see clearer far away and up close in your old glasses tells me the new prescription is too strong for you. Now if you are in your low to mid 40's, then that extra Rx could make your distance vision clearer, but will uncovering the beginning stages of Presbyopia (loosing the ability to focus up close). Either way, if your not happy, I would see if you can get a refund and try somewhere else. But if you have the same problem again, then it's probably the later reason.
no memories of when I got my first pair of glasses, it was a million years ago lol - 9th grade to be exact and turning 49 this year - great to see you're doing well! proud of you! I will be changing my eye dr soon - not 100% thrilled with the sam's club eye guy lol - see you soon and thank you for this video, it was really great!
So glad you liked liked it, Nicole! Sorry you had a bad experience. Even the best doctors have had days too!
I have a question, My daughter is 11 years old and as an 29 year old woman who has never taken an eye exam at her age, my last eye exam was maybe in 2011? Or 2010, so I think her last eyes exam was about 2015. Should I take her to an eye exam?
It would be awesome to create a habit for her to get a checkup every year or at least every other year. Just like making a habit of getting a physical every year!
Really informative! Great job doctor. Love true focus
Thank you so much!
Found it very informative and interesting
Great job as usual.
Thank you so much, Bunny! Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice work!

Thank you, sir. Means a lot coming from you!
@@TrueFocusEyeCare - Thank you. You will be our future!
Problem is, my in person eye doctor is holding my prescription hostage and I can not go anywhere besides there for my glasses/contacts. They refuse to give me my prescription so I can get cheaper options. Also he hired his daughter as front desk person and she never answers the phone and sometimes doesn't show up for work when I drive there. What do you do with no options?
That is against the law for them to hold your prescription. Let them know that you will call their state board and report them if they don't give you your prescription. They don't have to give you your PD measurements because that is not part of the prescription, but you can measure that yourself.
@@TrueFocusEyeCare
I will try that, thank you.
@@941asland 100% correct just can and say please email to me or print out and I’ll be in to pick up’
If they say no’ say well I guess will see what the board has to say about that because it’s against the law to withhold my prescription
I bet they email it in 5 mins
Great video!! I am coming to see you for a new prescription 🙌
Sounds good. Looking forward to seeing you!
Thank you very much for your presentation. I've bought glasses many times over the years, @ about $700.00 here in Canada. My eyes are not the same ... believe me, I use them all the time. I can't seem to get a pair of progressive glasses that I can see through properly. I'm told that I just have to get used to them. What does that mean?
There will usually be an adjustment period for the eyes to get used to any new prescription, differences in frame shape, and curves of the lenses. There are so many types of progressives out there, and some can be harder to get the eyes to be comfortable with them. Sometimes changing the progressive can give you the relief that you are looking for.
Love that intro doc! great content. Subscribed
Lol, thank you!
Can u talk more about eye movement and dry eyes .
I sure can!
Nice video!! Great job!
Thank you!!
Great video! I used to order my glasses online and they never fit quite right. I felt like it was worth it because the price was so cheap until the prescription peeled off the lenses! Never again!!! Do you recommend getting an eye exam every year or just when you feel like you need new glasses or contacts?
Hellp Shalini, as an Optical dispenser (Optician), generally I would suggest an exam every 12 months. However, this does depend on your eye health, any underlying issues and family history. I say every 12 months as this allows us to keep track of any changes to your eye health as well as the vision. This doesn't necessarily mean you will need a new Rx every time, it just allows us to ensure you eyes are as healthy as possible and allows for early detection of any potential issues. As far as your online purchase of glasses, I would suggest that the lens coating may have delaminated as the prescription is not a coating, it is the lens itself which corrects your vision. Try to avoid hot environments (e.g. leaving glasses in the car) as this can cause delamination. Not saying this occured due to yourself at all, just something to keep in mind :) hope that answers your question.
I agree with Emily! Definitely once a year. Same as I would see my regular doctor for a check up. I can't quite know how healthy I am just by feel alone!
Awesome answer, Emily!! Your office is lucky to have someone like you with your knowledge and ability to explain it. Keep it up!!
Great job!
Glad you liked it!!
Hi True Focus,
I often dreamed of working with an OD, on long-term prevention.
That would mean that I sign a contract with you -- where I make my own refraction measurements, and you check for true medical problems.
That would mean that we both succeed with my life time prevention.
I know that Optometry "boards", will never allow you to do that.
That is my, "scary story", for me.
We do these partnerships all the time. The legislation of it all is that you would need an opticians degree first, which takes 2 years to get. This regulates that not just any person off the street who says they have the next best cure for vision loss does not go around making people go blind because their treatment was right some but horrible for others. This has been done, and that is scary to me.
Just saw your video i like it. I wanted to ask you is it ok after 2 exams the Dr tells you that even with the glasses you will still see blurry( these glasses made me see blurry, headaches, nauseous, disoriented pain around my eyes and always tearing) she said my prescription was too strong and she will make it less strong. But still have issues. What are your thoughts please
I'd look for a second opinion. We, as doctors, must listen to the patient, and adjust your prescription as necessary or figure out what else could be the issue.
@@TrueFocusEyeCare i am going to an ophthalmologist instead of optician. Hopefully he can figure it out. Or i will need new set of eyes lol.
Thank you for replying 😍
@@hanane1324 if it had to do with prescription I'd stick with an Optometrist. They are the vision experts. But it can't hurt to talk to an Ophthalmologist. I would also look for a doctor who can prescribes Neurolenses.
I have a quick update which left me more puzzled. I went to lenscrafters today for a 2nd opinion and the Dr said i have a lazzy eye that is why its not trying to adapt with the prescription glasses, she said i should stop trying and stick with the glasses that works for me that my husband gets from the dollar general 😳😳. What a waste of 69$. What are your thoughts on this
@@hanane1324 I wish I could examine your eyes to give you better advice. Have you ever been told that you have a lazy eye? This could effect the quality of vision you have with glasses. Instead of 20/20, we may have to settle with 20/happy.
Forget this
Vision we wot vto see I have this experience they don't put me to sleep wer they do my eys, pression tech wos used and the white come for liter time but after I see the Dr like shadow I her wer hi command to other person more pression hie give him answer , But I start see him more clin , very special experience , hi do good job, not pienfully just I trust him whit my eyes 👀, After I see this wanderfull color I wos so happy I was thingy be stay for long time but his say only for 1,2 days, 2 hr I go home, Andy letter 1 month he do may other eyes 👀 very special they pression wos deference. , wer techy too,
New tech to help us keep the eyes healthy are always a good thing as long as we pair that info with the wisdom of what we already know from experience. Welcome to the channel, Kim!
It is "versus" not "verses."
Lol, got it!!
The Bible is full of "verses". Give it a rest, bud.
