I had never done it before. I felt a little bit like cheating actually.
But I pulled my eye glass prescription out of my wallet and ordered glasses ONLINE.
Most people know that my glasses are really important to me. And not just because I have gotten pretty used to being able to SEE, but after the TWO failed Lasik attempts they’ve become a kinda signature thing for me. Part of my ‘look’ in a way. And since it is the only accessory I wear every single day of my life, and ON MY FACE, the selection of those glasses is tricky. And inevitably I end up picking out the most expensive pair without trying. Last ones set me back $600 bucks. Let that soak in…I said $600 bucks. So that means I do not have more than one pair. I do not even get new ones every year. So I damn well better LOVE those glasses. And I do. I love my $600 glasses.
But I was yearning for a little change. Like I have always wanted to try rimless glasses. You know those stealth-invisible eyeglasses. I found a place online that is so good, I had to share with you…I found GlassesUSA.
I was shocked at the prices.
Shocked in a good way.
All of the prescription glasses under $110. Like WAY UNDER.
For the glasses and an adorable case with wipey cloth.
So I sent off my order, and in a week or so they showed up.
And I am happy to report…they work perfectly, fit perfectly and have made me giddy with excitement.
Over glasses?
YOU BET.
Photos of them on my face coming soon.
I know you can hardly wait.

Argh, I need new glasses. New contacts in fact. I am the person who wears their 2 week contacts for oh, 4 months. Oops. Those look super cute. Oh, thank you for moving back to a full feed. :-) My Google Reader appreciates you! So do I!
My prescription is older than my marriage. I have to hold the computer at arm’s length to read anything (and this is a clunky desktop monitor). Sigh. What’s that link again?
I wish wish wish I could wear rimless glasses! Marcy, when you reach the -5.00 and -6.00 prescriptions, you will miss them, as I do.
