Mobile O’s

The idea of the mobile optician is nothing new. Phillip Roman has found a profitable niche in catering to people that place a high value on time. Professionals, actors, athletes, CEOs, and single moms all utilize Roman’s Eyewear 2 U or E2U service. Roman uses technology to enhance his service by requesting emailed photographs and style preferences from his clients prior to meeting. He then visits his clients providing celebrity-like treatment with a personal stylist and custom selected eyewear.

However, customers of mobile opticians still have to make time to schedule an appointment and visit an optometrist for an exam and refraction, before scheduling an appointment with the optician. So, here’s a thought: make eye health more convenient too. Install an exam lane in the back of a bus or RV to provide a complete service, similar to the mobile dentist concept. Schedule visits at educational and corporate campuses. Corporations and employees both benefit from the timesavings. Best of all, no more driving home with dilated pupils.
