Oddly enough, I didn't.
I guess I'm just not smart enough to be a Frootloop on the Lam.
Maybe a little paranoia wouldn't go amiss. After all, your optician could gain perfect eyesight without glasses, but how much more valuable is being able to say "Yeah, I could get that surgery for free, but I didn't"? "Oh, and by the way, did you want to order some prescription sunglasses whilst you're here? Maybe a spare pair of glasses to keep in the car?" I don't think it's too unreasonable to suggest your optician has something of a vested interest in ensuring you keep coming back every couple of years.
