Optician says, “I can adjust them, but they are not the glasses I sold you.”

Man gets a little huffy and says, “They sure are!”

Optician: “They are lavender and are a ladies frame.”

Man: “Honey, come over here.”

His wife comes over and she has his glasses on!

They switch frames, and all the world is happy — and the roads safer! — Dr. Todd M., Sarasota, FL

Not So Fast …

Finish for the day, pack up my stuff, put my coat on, and walk out the door. On my way out, wave goodbye to staff and a patient in the optical. Get outside. Realize said patient I just waved goodbye to is dilating, and her exam isn’t actually done. Put stuff in car. Walk back inside. — Dr. Christie M. Reading, PA
