It has gotten so much worse too over the past year and now I may need bifocals cause the distance has increased so much on them. UGH. It's a $400-$500 expense at Lenscrafters with the new bifocals, (I am going to get progressives to make it easier) and the sunglasses which I need for driving. This is just awful, but I know it's just a minor annoyance because I know I can afford it, I will just have to work extra hard in the month of September and not screw around too much, like I have been.

Just grateful to have the means to afford it, but just not a happy camper today at the awareness of my age and my old worn-out eyes. : (

In work-mode right now for the day, and also going to meet with a church friend later for dinner. Hope everyone is having a productive Monday!!

I get my eye glasses online it is soooo much cheaper than the stores. I use eyebuydirect and have had no problems. My Dr know I buy online and includes all the info I need to fill out the forms. I have sunglasses from them too. They also take insurance, though I’ve not used that feature . You might compare the two. They have lots more choices than my local store has.
