Optometrist that is Shooter Friendly

[tfpm9]

I live in the Sacramento area and need a good optometrist that knows and deals with the needs of shooters.

I have progressive lenses and I'm left eye dominant. I'm right handed and have adjusted to shooting pistols.

I've now gotten into distance shooting with a scoped rifle and my current glasses are not ideal. I do wear progressive contact lenses from time to time.

I'd like to see an eye doctor who deals with the needs of shooters. If anyone knows of a good Optometrist in the Sacramento to Vacaville area and can recommend one I would appreciate it.

I belong to VSP so if he/she is in the network that would be best.

Thanks.

I don't think there are any. An optometrist is there to help you see better but I don't think your going to find one that specialized in shooting. Just find a good doctor and get Lazily done.

There was thread here about a year ago that had dr. in the Sacramento area that was a shooter. He was supposed to specialize in helping shooters. I'm sorry I don't remember the name.

I know a good optometrist up here in Auburn. Would be about an hour drive from Sacramento.

Google Norman Wong for an article he did for the NRA magazine.

Just got a new R/X for my new shooting glasses this weekend. Discussed my issues and I was done in 20 minutes. Most don't carry much in the way of true "shooting glasses." He only had sports-related frames or industrial safety glasses. A friend suggested I buy the frames online and take them into Lens Crafters (or similar) and get lenses done. He suggested U.S Cavalry.

Drop me a line if you ever come down south, (west covina area) or visit redwood city, east of palo alto.

They exist. Do some searching. Hint: What is the largest, most cosmopolitan city within 3 hours of your location? Look in that city.

I will not post their name in a public forum.

How is telling him to look for an optometrist in SF even close to a hint? You know there's more than 1 optometrist there, right?

I know a CalGunner dentist, but not an optometrist.

I know one in the East Bay, if you want to travel.
