Pricing Mistakes That Sink Your Optical Profit—and How to Fix Them

You didn’t become an optometrist to feel like a discount retailer. But somewhere along the way, insurance plans took over, patients started price-shopping, and the optical—once the heart of your business—started to feel like a race to the bottom. In this conversation, we step back and ask: What if the problem isn’t the patients? What if it’s how we’ve been taught to sell to them? We explore the emotional side of optical retail—from the silent frustration of presenting options you know are better, only to have patients walk, to the missed opportunities hiding in your pricing strategy, your frame boards, and even your staff conversations. Chris Millet from Modern Optical helps us unpack the psychology of choice, the power of perceived value, and how a few key changes in the patient journey can reignite not just your profits—but your passion for helping people see and look their best.   Follow our Podcast on All Available Platforms Follow our Podcast on Instagram Follow IDOC on Facebook Follow IDOC on LinkedIn Watch our Podcast Video on YouTube
