a traveling optician in the isolated villages of Corrèze

A motorhome criss-crosses the isolated villages of Corrèze. On board, Alexandre Jacquet, optician from Mauriac, leaves his store in Cantal for the village square of Saint-Privat (Corrèze) where 1,000 inhabitants live. Here, not a single optical store within 30 minutes. Inside, his motorhome is a real kit store to assemble, disassemble and then reassemble. A lot of effort in the service of another vision of the profession. “The passion for the profession”, comments the optician.

Home visits

The appointments are linked, with one hour reserved per client. The optician can also visit at home and travel to bring new glasses, in particular to the Saint-Privat nursing home, where most residents approve of the formula. A tool in the fight against the renunciation of care, this itinerant optician allows an entire territory to see better.
