Bourbonman Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 i would suggest an opthomoligist instead of an optician Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osuespirit Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 And I would suggest you go to Guadlajara. There are many excellent eye doctors in Guad. Search on this site - they are listed frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 I'd recommend getting your eyes examined for diseases and conditions like cataracts by an opthamologist, but get glasses from an optometrist or optician. For some unknown reason, their exam is more accurate. I've done it both ways over a lifetime of wearing glasses and that's been my experience. The optician up on the carretera (mountain side) in the strip near Telmex did a good job for me the last time. His name is Salvador, and I believe he's there on Saturdays. A new lady is there during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Dr. Vargas has an office in the Ajijic Clinic on Tuesdays, so you can call the clinic to make an appointment. He comes well recommended and practices in Guadalajara; uses Puerto del Hierro Hospital for surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kookielendmeyourcomb Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 thanks for all the info. everybody. is there a opthamologist in ajijic or chapala? Dr. Antonio Pinto is an opthamologist. His office is located just east of Maskaras Clinic on the lake side of the carretera. He is a medical doctor trained in opthamology. There is also an opthamologist that comes to Dermika, in the Ajijic Plaza next to ISI Lab and Pasteleria Marisa. And another who comes to the Ajijic Clinic once a week. There is yet another who is just in from the corner of Colon and the Carretera, mountain side, who comes a few times per week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you were a referee I'm surprised this is the first time you've been told to get an eye exam. Most referees (of all sports) are told that on a regular basis. I would suggest you visit Dr. Luz at LCS. She's excellent and should you situation require a specialist she will tell you. Second, her prices for spec are very reasonable. And third, you eye exam will be no-charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcelonaman Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 This message has been approved by the Haggis foundation. what took you so long ??? english refs are just as bad. theres no law to say an englishman cant referee in scotland. the wall you refer to, is that the one that kept out all the scots players invading england in the 70 and 80 s? fortunately it did work during the last foot and mouth outbreak in 2000, there were no reports that any haggis died during that crisis, unfortunately no reports of referees dying either...
