Als Kind musste ich stets eine Brille tragen ("Brillenschlange"🤧). Nach den Schulaustritt 1977 habe ich mich, nach eingehender Beratung durch Robert Leist und mehreren Probe-Tragen, umgehend für Kontaktlinsen entschieden. Ob Kontaktlinsen oder "Notfallbrille" - die kompetenten und kundenfreundlichen Fachpersonen beraten mich noch heute, nach 47 Jahren, stets zu meiner vollen Zufriedenheit 👍
