All Frames May Need a Final Adjusted for the Perfect Fit, This can Be Done By Your Local Optician when You have Your Lenses Installed!
I started working in the shop in 1975 and have been a Certified Optician since 1982! These frames were still very common when I started in the shop and I was lucky to learn the trade from the Old Pro's!!

A Little History about Physicians Optical Company
We are Family owned and Operated. I am the 4th generation in the optical industry. My Grandfather and Great Grandfather were M.D.s. My father, wife and I are Certified Opticians. My father started our business in 1950 when he bought out the American Optical (A/O) owned and operated shop in East St. Louis, IL. Before that he worked for American Optical and Bausch & Lomb (B&L) in St. Louis. By being around so long we have accumulated a huge collection of Vintage Eyewear both New and Used. I am always digging around in the store rooms and finding treasures. Also we are located close to Scott Air Force Base and have a large number of New and Used Military eyeglass frames. Put me on your favorite seller list because you never know what I will find next. We are running out of room so both the New and Old must go and I will get them listed as fast as time permits. Between the 3 of us we have over 100 years experience so you can buy with confidence.
