Thanks to my mother’s genes, I am as blind as can be. Every time I go in for an eye exam, my eyes only get worse- they never stay the same. I am SO fortunate to be near-sighted in my right eye and far-sighted in my left eye and (oh yes, there’s more) I have an astigmatism in my right eye. So seeing is LOTS of fun for me. The world is quite blurry when I am not wearing my glasses.
My problem with getting glasses is that they are so. damn. expensive. In my experience, I have had a hard time getting glasses companies to just swap out the lens in my frame (which I usually pay a boat load of money for). They give me one excuse or the other and so I always end up buying new glasses. My last pair cost me about $200+, never mind how much I paid for the eye exam itself (even though I had “insurance that covered vision”).
EyeBuyDirect.com offers glasses at discount prices. They offer a wide range of frames on their site from fashion to classic, designer to sports. Do you wear bifocal or progressive lenses? Don’t worry- they offer those too.
