    To be fair you can get a pair of glasses on Zenni for like 20 bucks.

        Yep! You just get a prescription from the eye doctor and enter the values on the site. 20 bucks later and boom you have some very reliable and inexpensive glasses. I’ve been using these guys for years and had basically zero issues.

        I got a pair of prescription glasses and sun glasses from Payne glasses for $80. I stopped wearing contacts a few years ago, and I work outside. I really missed having sun glasses.

        Yep, also need your pupillary distance. i havent gotten an exam in so long i cant remember if thats included in the prescript. Luckily my eyesight hasnt gotten worse (yet).

        Wearing my 26 dollar photochromic zennis for this comment. Been using zenni glasses for the better part of a decade.

          It’s not usually but you can print out the little gauge thing or use their in browser tool if you have a Webcam and don’t mind your face being scanned by a discount glasses company in the decade of machine learning we’re about to go through

        Yep. I used them after I got new lenses. My eye doc gave me all the numbers I needed to enter.

        Best part is if you know your script you can tweak it if your vision changes.

      From what I remember, $20 gets you a premium pair! I was getting glasses from Zenni and others for <$10.

      If the daughter is looking at Lasik, it’s not out of necessity.

        There are so many variables you are skipping over to claim a blanket statement like this.
