You can go to the eye Dr. because he re an independent but you cannot buy glasses at the optical department without a membership. Look at groupon, living social, etc for membership deals.
They are right, you have to be a member.
You has to be a member.
Word
You should be able to use the pharmacy, eye care, and purchase alcohol per Oregon state law. Costco's website does not indicate otherwise so shouldn't be a problem. They have an optometrist on site. I don't know what the rules would be for purchasing glasses you would have to ask there but they can't decline services to see the doctor just because you don't have membership.
