Should your eye doctor sell supplements?

This article raises a good point.  Doctors should not be in the position of selling you products.  And supplements benefits are inconsistent at best.  Here is an excerpt from the article.

There's something fishy about this, besides the fish oil, in my opinion. If a doctor wants to suggest that this product may help, show me the research and tell me that I can buy it in places besides your office. I later discovered that a similar formula with Lutein, Zeaxanthin and fish oil is available at Sam's Club for half the cost. I suspect it's available at any retailer that sells a lot of supplements and vitamins.

What do you thing?  Click the title for the full article.
