Patient Wait Times for Eye Exam Appointments Are Usually Short
​

A Jobson Optical Research survey of U.S. adults conducted in June 2011 indicates that 84 percent of patients are able to schedule an eye exam within two weeks of their call to an ECP. Seventy percent are able to book exams within a week or less of their call. This indicates that an excess supply of available appointment slots exists in most eyecare practices.​

And I wonder if for those that say longer than two weeks if that means ANY appointment or just the time they want. ie: I can only come in on Saturday afternoons between 2:30 and 3:00pm. What do you mean I have to wait 2 weeks?
