The Oprah/Palin interview was lame. I haven't been an Oprah fan and I'm even less a fan now. :rolleyes:

Boy did I luck out today.  They had some frames that my old lenses fit right into so I don't have to be stuck with a pair of 30+ yr old glasses for 3wks waiting on my new ones...... :biggrin:  Don't normally take that long but I want glass lenses instead of plastic.  :wink:

Why do you want glass instead of plastic (polycarbonate) lenses? You wearing safety glasses or something?

No distortion with glass and my last experience with plastic was a bad one.  I get motion sickness real easy and that added to the problem. It's also like looking though smoke or a haze all the time.

Polycarbonate lenses require that you pay attention to how you care for them; they scratch if you use the wrong type of cloth to clean them, and cloud if you use the wrong kind of cleaners on them. Outside of that the optics are comparable to glass, without the weight hanging on your nose.

I am on my third pair of them and find them wonderful. In fact I even went with a lightweight plastic frame this time. About the only thing I find irritating is that sometimes I forget I have the things on!  :biggrin: And yes, I wear no line bifocals!  :biggrin:

Use the cloth and cleaner they provide you with to maintain them and you'll never have a problem with them.

I've worn glasses since I was 9 and always had glass so the weight don't really bother me and even the glass lenses are lighter now than they used to be.  My pair before this last pair were the polycarbonate and I had the same problem with them as with plastic.  I was unaware what they were because I had requested glass and couldn't figure out why I was having so much trouble seeing right and they finally fessed up and replaced the lenses with glass ones for me and I was fine so it's not my imagination since I thought they were glass.  I don't have bifocals so that wasn't the problem either.

Bifocals suck!  And when that doctor told me I should consider trifocals......uh....no thanks.  I have enough of a problem with 2 strengths in one lense.  Not to mention...I can't get progressive...so lined is what I end up with.   If I had extra bucks...I'd take my scrip over to walmart and get them there.....no lines, and nice frames for a decent price.  I'd be happy.
Looks like I've come full circle.

Oh those Friday night blues they get in your shoes and they work to get you down; Oh there ain't a lady that I ever knew who didn't need her night on the town; But the hills ans bills and a week's worth of deals has got him feelin' more than used; Oh, he's kicking his shoes off she's putting hers on she's got the Friday night bluuuuuues!

I'm sure I misspelled that. I think I left out a "ic" after "list" and before "expea" :biggrin:

We wonder why the dogs always drink out of our toilets, but look at it from their point of view:
why do humans keep peeing into their water bowls?

or your husband trying to help him out of said toilet bowl
