seeking excellent Pittsburgh optician

cellioDear Brain Trust,
When it comes to eyeglasses I have complicated, finicky needs. I had an excellent optician who consistently met those needs -- but note that "had"; the place is no longer in business and the optician have moved out of state. It's now time to get new glasses, so I'm looking for recommendations.
The optician I'm looking for will be very precise about measuring, bifocal placement, the optical properties of different frame shapes, and so forth. This optician will also work with me for as long as it takes; last time we spent over an hour putting together the order. I am looking for -- and expect to pay for -- a high-end professional.
Ideally this optician either is within several miles of Squirrel Hill or has generous evening or Sunday hours. (Saturday hours do not help.) But for the right optician, if I have to go to Wexford during the work day (shudder) I'll do that. I'd just rather not.
I have a prescription already; I don't need an exam or a refraction. I just need somebody to make my glasses to exacting standards.
Any recommendations?
