A. The ophthalmologists' offices have begun selling prescription goggles to their customers once the nearby gymnasium had completed adding an Olympic size outdoor pool --- beginning of selling is an one-time affair; Hence, we need a simple past to describe that. Wrong
B. The ophthalmologists' offices began the selling of prescription goggles to their customers once the nearby gymnasium had completed adding an Olympic size outdoor pool … began the selling is unidiomatic
C. That ophthalmologists have begun the selling of prescription goggles to their customers once Olympic pool the nearby gymnasium had completed adding ---- 1 a fragment 2. Ophthalmologists have not begun; their offices did. --- Distortion of the original meaning
D. The ophthalmologists began selling prescription goggles to their customers once the nearby gymnasium had completed adding an Olympic size outdoor pool ….. Distorted version. It is the offices that began selling; not the ophthalmologists themselves
E. That ophthalmologists' offices began selling prescription goggles to their customers once the nearby gymnasium had completed adding an Olympic size outdoor pool – best on all counts tense usage and keeping intact the meaning.

E: Fragment sentence. The 'That' relative clause could constitute a subject. However, the answer choice as a whole is missing a verb.
Past Perfect: We use the past perfect if one action in the past precedes another past action and if we need to clarify the time sequence. In this problem, the earlier past event 'had completed adding...pool' precedes the ophtalmologists' decision to sell prescription googles to their customers. In addition, the past perfect is correctly used to empahsize the order of events.
As a result, we use the past perfect for the earlier past action and a simple past tense verb for the later one. Answers A & C incorrect.
We are left with B and D:
Answer B: Wrong. 'The selling of prescription googles' is redundant in comparison with 'selling prescription googles'. Pure redundancy is always wrong on the GMAT.
Hence, D correct.
