New Glasses
I got my first new glasses (not counting sunglasses) in over a decade yesterday. My old glasses were in a real sorry state, they were missing one of the nosepads, they were quite painful when rough housing with the kids. The new ones are rimless and I only paid $129 for them. I bought them over the internet, based on reviews I found at this
site. There's a reason I hadn't bought new glasses in 11 years. Back when I moved into Herndon, I got my eyes checked and bought two pairs of eyeglasses. I spent somewhere between $600 and $1000. Since then, I've just been getting the lenses replaced in those frames to save money. With these internet sites offering glasses on the cheap, I can afford to buy more often and to upgrade what I buy. One of the reasons I spent so much 11 years ago was to get those super lightweight can't feel 'em on my face lenses. I got those this time around included in the $129 cost along with the anti-reflective coating for night driving and computer use.
