Vision 20/20 Opens in David
A new optical center has opened in David across the street from Daisy and the Cable Onda office and to the right of Centro 1-2-3.
I went there because I heard that Carla (previously with Optica Lopez) was working there. Carla has been a good friend of mine since 2005 and I am glad to see her doing what she does best, assisting people with their optical needs.
Here is a photo of the Vision 20/20 staff. Yuliana is on the left, Carla is on the right and Dra. Inés Chang is in the middle.
I was there about 30 minutes and was able to talk to the doctor. She speaks excellent English and I liked her professional attitude. I may have found a new eye center.
The shop is new and well organized. They are currently having a special on single vision glasses.
This is a photo of the examination room.
It is always good to have choices and I think this one will create a lot of competition for other optical shops in the city.
If you stop in the shop, tell Yuliana, Carla and Dra. Chang that you heard about them in Chiriquí Chatter.

I was quoted 2400 at a clinic in Houston (or California)..I hate glasses. Always lose em or break em so I just get el cheapo magnifyers at the local store..Paul
Hi Paul. Lasic surgery is only available in Panama City as far as I know. This clinic and other clinics in David do glasses and contacts.
Hi Don,
Does Carla speak english? I would like to call and see if they do progressive lenses.
Thanks, and I love reading your blog.

Carla is working on her English, but the doctor speaks perfect English. I am almost certain they work with progressive lenses. Give the doctor a call and I am sure she can help you. I will give your blog a look after I get done with some software upgrades.
Thanks Don, you’re Great!
