I don't know if glasses and contacts have the same accessibility problems. I know people like to rage against the machine and reveal the ancient forbidden knowledge they have "discovered" about the Luxottica monopoly but you can get a vision test at any of the ten thousand or so optometrists in the US for $50. Then you can order a pair of perfectly serviceable and stylish prescription glasses online for $20. In the 30 years I've been buying glasses, I've never paid more than $100 except for the last time when I opted for the fancy blue-blocking and ultra-scratch-resistant coating and my glasses were $105. Hearing aids cost thousands and thousands of dollars.
