For new glasses. I know, big whoop. I was considering going with contact lenses, but with the bizarre effects of brain altering medications, I am not so sure I would handle Something On My Eyeballs Damn It! very well right now. Not to mention that I have to take them out before bed every night and forgetting to do so will leave me with sticky eyeballs and I don't enjoy that. Every year when I go to get my eye exam and new specs, I always consider, "Why not just get contacts?" and I never do, because I still need new glasses in addition, because I am so blind, I have to wear one or the other all the time, including middle of the night pee runs.
Considering the cost of frames and lenses, eye surgery seems like the best option every year, but it's a big expense in one shot, and I don't know if it's even indicated with my eye issues. That means, it's glasses. I need new glasses. My insurance only has one local "dealer" where I can get a free exam and a "discount" on my lenses, so I am sort of stuck with what they have to offer. Sure, what they have to offer are DKNY, D & G, and similar name-brand frames, I'm not complaining, they sho is purdy. And it's not even the frames that are that expensive, it's my prescription lenses, this annual trip usually costs up to $500.00, which is why I try to put it off or wait until I can't see anymore. It's time, I'm squinting again. :/
But, you keep emailing me! "Beth, try this: $8 Zenni Optical Rx Eyeglasses. I'm a cynic, can it be for real? It is! Could you imagine how many pairs of glasses I could own? After my exam, because I need an exam to make sure my eyes are still there, I will maybe try it? Zenni says, "ZenniOptical.com Sells Stylish Prescription Glasses Online. You will
find huge selection of frames, with single vision lens, sunsensor
(potochromic) lens, tinted suglasses lens, bifocal lens and progressive
lens. The Secret to Zenni's Low Prices is that they sell only their own manufactured frames direct to the

I will let you know.
