I know very little. The locator has a little graphic to show an optical
office. Also, when you select stores in the locator, you can select for
various things, including gasoline, pharmacy and optical:

Definitely no way to tell much. I've had minor problems for a few
years. Didn't know what it was. Three visits to the emergency room.
At the last one, they said it was my gall bladder! They told me to come
back if I ran a fever. So two days later I was back. They put me in
the hospital and took out my gall bladder! I hope my problems go away.
