Eye wear

There are none so blind as those who won’t wear bifocals.

Packing for Europe AND for my daughter's out-of-state graduation. If anyone sees my bifocals, I'd be grateful!

(Thankfully, the older prescription is still viable... -ish...)

One fly to another in an optometrist's store: "At your age, I recommend getting the millifocals"

Welp, bifocals ordered. Guess my age is catching up to me. Going to be a while, shops which still work in #CrownGlass are becoming more rare. In the meantime, on the 'backups': mixed lenses and manytimes broken arms (which is why the logo is inverted and the far side one doesn't match).

Holy crap.

So, yes I'm old enough to need #progressive (read #bifocals) lenses in my #glasses. Spurred by this weekends *breaking* of my non-tinted pair, I finally went for an eye-exam for the first time in nearly 5 years.

The frame alone is $350 (thanks #Luxottica Group S.p.A monopoly asshats)** **and the lenses are $275 each.

And guess how much the benefits cover: $250 every 24 months. Do unspent amounts rollover? nope.

*Tragically, few #optometrists have layaway or installment plans.*

As a person that enjoys both working on small objects and also looking into the middle distance, I hate what my #eyesight has become.

#Bifocals #glasses are probably the answer. I looked at progressive lenses on youtube, but they seem to be a hassle to actually use.

What I unironically want is
