I’ve finally bought new eyeglasses. I picked them up on Saturday. Even with vision coverage through my job, they still put a hole in my pocket. But hopefully, I won’t have to buy another pair for a long time, and if I do, I think I might just use the same frames and replace the lenses only.
Because I’m damn-near blind in one eye, I had one of the lenses condensed and both lenses got a roll and polish. However, I didn’t get the anti-glare finish because the glasses already cost me a pretty penny without it, and I plan to only wear these babies around the house. But who knows, maybe in a couple months, I’ll stop into a Wallsmart, and have them place that anti-glare finish on them after all.
