Like everyone else, Hollywood stars sometimes need eyeglasses, especially since their work calls for them to read so many scripts. When they do, many of them turn to Cheryl Shuman, a San Fernando Valley optician who has filled prescriptions for the likes of Meryll Streep, Jack Nicholson and Mike Douglas. Paula Abdul even had the Dr. Shuman make up a pair of plain-glass spectacles, just to be fashionable.
And remember those infamous dark shades worn by Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Terminator II"? You guessed it. Cheryl provided them.
According to the L.A. Times, she has also worked as an advisor and supplier to such movies as "The American President," "Casino," "Pretty Woman," "Bugsy," "Thelma & Louise," "Barton Fink," and "Postcards From The Edge," as well as to TV shows such as "Cheers" and "L.A. Law." She has received as much as $2,000 a day for her work as an on-set consultant to stars like Robert Downey Jr. And in addition, eyeglass-makers sometimes pay her to get their frames onto the silver screen.
