I'm sure it is. In a mugge shop, they must first study your eyes to 
get just exactly what kind of lenses you need, and then it'll take 
about a week before they're made!

I think the wizards would at least use magic to re-shape the lenses 
instead of making new ones... and charm them so that rain won't blur 
them etc.

Also, I think that wizard optometry would include glasses to be used 
to 'X-ray', used like a heat-camera... (and several other our looking 
equipment)

And um... I'm not sure if they're very good at fixing eyes. They can, 
however, replace a lost eye with one that can see trough objects, 
invisibility cloaks etc. Not a bad change for Moody - and I think 
Moody would have chosen that magical eye instead of having his eyes 
fixed.
