Got new glasses at a local optometrist’s office. He talked me out of getting full-on progressives in favor of brand name “anti-fatigue” lenses. Total *after* insurance: $200+ (before insurance: $700+‼️).

Then I ordered a cheapo pair, after reading up on the anti-fatigue lenses & fabricating a (stronger) progressive prescription. Total, no insurance: $135.

Guess which pair is better? :blob_cat_innocent:

Anyway! Try yesglasses.com if you need good cheap specs.

What kind of looks better on ?

Match your
Color Matching: It is also important to coordinate the eyeglass color with one's skin tone, hair color, and dress style.

Style Choice: styles should also match one's dress code and professional image.

And the glasses also need to be determined by the individual's facial features.

Finally had my regular eye appointment today, three months late. The delay was caused by me getting a (where the gel that fills the eyeball separates from the retina) in my left , two years after getting one in my right. Then there was another appointment when it got worse, then two followups to confirm it was getting better, with no complications.

Today's appointment was not improved by the saying in passing that I was starting to develop cataracts. But now I have my latest prescription, and will order them next week.

Trying to get my head around () and in particular adaptive lenses.

Did you know that photochromic lenses (i.e. adaptive lenses that aren't Transitions lenses) are activated by the amount of UV light hitting them, but then darken in response to ambient temperature? The lower the temperature, the darker they get.

This would make sense for people who live in very snowy areas, but for me in the UK it's debatable how useful they'd be.
But, they're a fraction of the price of Transitions lenses, which are typically near or over £100 a pair.

What's better than a steaming cup of tea and a good book on a cold, rainy day? Just get cozy in front of the fogged up window, enjoy a cuppa and a reading!

Just got my new . I decided to opt for the premium progressive lenses this time, after years with regular progressives, and it was totally worth it.

I could feel the difference the moment I put them on, even though my prescription hasn’t changed much from my previous pair.

(Ordered online from EyeBuyDirect. This is not a paid endorsement, I just like them.)

Funny story

I developed pain shortly after I started to wear for

It took me many years to associate the two. You won't believe what it was.

I read books on my mobile device at night before I go to bed, I lie on my right side and would prop myself on the pillow at my jaw because sandwiching the glasses between my skull and pillow hurt my ear.

The day I stopped doing that was the last day I had any TMJ issues 💀

Any recommendations for for work / ? I've tried about a half-dozen and I'm not happy with the quality of the lenses. Should I just get real glasses with the power I need for readers?

I'm so mad at my . The technician did the exam and came up with the prescription for my new , doc just signed it.

Doc only looked at the eyes for a few minutes after they were dilated. First time seeing him because of provider issues.

My script changed so much that I was concerned, and I mentioned it seemed way off. He shrugged me off.

They only do the exam.

I got my eyeglasses today and they are so off you can't see through them

Shopping for new eyeglasses at Warby Parker. The design dimensions for men seem "Maverick & Goose", "'70s British Spy", "Let's borrow Grannie's glasses like Bubbles".

And that one frame that makes you look like an adult Harry Potter cosplayer.

Oh, btw, a sure sign of my body getting older, is the fact that I'll be trying progressive addition lenses/varifocal/multifocal lenses for the first time with the new glasses. I'm curious how that will turn out. :rm_nerd:
