The optometrist recommended seamless bifocals. I have a very painful nerve condition in my face (atypical trigeminal neuralgia), so this is what I need with glasses: the lightest weight frames possible- known as ultra light- with the lightest weight lenses possible and automatically darkening lenses so I don’t need the weight of sunglasses. The cheapest frames brought the total to $250 on the site the insurance worked with.
The frames are $20 on the cheap site. Everything else in the cost is the lenses.
As for why I have to buy them online- I don’t want anyone touching my face unless it’s absolutely necessary. The exam was painful enough.
American for-profit healthcare is fucking awesome.

lol thanks.
That’s cheap… I’ve paid over $500 -with- insurance.
lol you’re trolling, right? Are your glasses made of pure kryptonite or what? Even a high-end titanium frame costs $100-$150, regular stuff is well below that. The best prescription lens with all the features like anti scratch or anti blue light or UV-blocking and whatnot would cost no more than $30 each.
These are facts whether you like them or not.
