It's apparent most of these things don't cost nearly what the person who
needs them is being charged. When I lived in a large metropolitan area
I could get an eye exam and two pair of glasses for $99. Living in a
fairly rural area now, one pair of eyeglasses (cheap frames) with the
exam runs around $300. If I drove to Savannah or Charleston I could
find eyeglass places with the two-fer deals; in this small town you're
stuck with higher prices set by the optical shop.
