I Got a New Pair of Glasses

And I love them!!!

I never in a million years thought I would say that. I'm as blind as a bat (okay, this is how blind: put your thumb on your nose and stretch out your index finger and beyond that point the print goes blurry). So you know the selection in the coke bottom lenses department has been kinda slim for the last few decades. Until now!

I got the coolest pair of tortoise shell glasses and all of a sudden I can actually go out in public wearing my eyeglasses. Yes, you heard right. Without making people blanch and faint when they look. Now that's progress.

My twenty year old said they make me look younger. And he wasn't even hedging for a favor from me when he said it so I know it must be true. :biggrin:

So the moral of the story is that if you have sub-par eyesight there is new hope on the horizon for you! Eyeglasses don't have to be the end of the world anymore. :wub:

I love modern technology
 
I just got new glasses too. I pick them up tomorrow. I've never worn them even though I'v needed them They are progressive lens . I'm excit ed that they took my fav oversized pink sunshades and put precript.lense in them. Then I got another cool pair.
 
They sound like funn. I had to get a pair of glasses with prisms to correct my double vision. Like yours, the lenses are really thick, but found a pair of trendy glasses to offset thickness. Eyeglass choices are really cool these days. Can't wait to see pics!!Of England as well.:biggrin:
 
Definitely post pics, Merm. I'm picking up a new pair of glasses tomorrow, too. I never wear my glasses publicly either because they are so thick, but these are supposed to be thinner lenses and the frame should work - we shall see.
 
:clap: :clap: Mermy....now you can see ALL the beautiful sights on your trip!:wub:
 
Mermy, you have inspired me to at least LOOK at glasses, which I desperately need. I haven't had a new pair in more than a long time, and I never wore the ones I had. Will report back.
