I Wish I Knew About This Sooner!

Last January, I went to have my vision checked, expecting to be told that I needed reading glasses, and to spend a little less time at the computer.

I left that office stunned! I needed progressive lenses, and the bill was going to be over $400. My insurance would cover a little less than half of that!

My husband, as already anticipated, would need new lenses as well. That would be over $350 out of pocket, thank you very much! Need I say OUCH?!

Not What I Expected! 

Not Even Close!

End of January, my glasses arrived. I hated them! I spend a lot of time doing illustrations and page layouts on my computer, and I couldn't even find the monitor in the silly, albeit cute, new glasses!

Oh, Boy! ~ Now, I get to buy computer glasses! How much is that going to cost? And, while we are at it, reading glasses, and then sunglasses?

I could see that I had just fallen down a slippery slope, and there was no turning back. I needed to find a more cost effective solution. And, I DID!

I found a place called EyeBuyDirect.com. They make affordable, good quality glasses for a fraction of what I paid earlier this year. A fraction!

Latest Update 

November 2009

While at work two weeks ago, my husband encountered a flying penny that cracked one of the lenses on his glasses. He put in a call to Sears to see what it would cost to replace just the lens. They quoted him $150.00 to replace the lens. I then got online and ordered a full replacement pair of glasses from eyebuydirect.com for $78.00 (including shipping)! And, now, he has an additional pair of glasses for half of what it would have cost him to replace the lens! AWESOME!

My Husband Thought I Was Crazy! 

Like a Fox!

My honey thought I had slipped a cog when I started researching glasses on the internet. He has been wearing lenses since the 4th grade, and didn't believe that you could get anything worthwhile to wear (that worked) unless you went in and did the whole exam/tryon/fitting routine.

Then, I got my lenses and really LOVED them! Those computer lenses were (and still are) amazing! I can see the entire monitor clearly, and they cost me $15.00!! That's right! $15.00! I was so jazzed, I got some for him as a gift, and HE LOVED THEM!!

Now, we both have computer lenses, reading lenses, and sunglasses! The cost for all of these COMBINED was under $100!

Can you guess where I am going after this year's eye exam?
