I can get by most places with store-boughts; but for editing and computer work—I need something better; and plastic lenses weren’t cutting it anyway.<\/p>\n
Plus I’m not that happy with the prescription. So..I changed optometrists and went to Costco’s doc—there’s more to it than that, like a stray 16.00 bill hanging over from the last company my optometrist worked for, that the optometrist wanted me to pay. She billed me right around the date of the wedding. I lost the darn bill. I’ve been to her shop since then for, oh, at least 3-4 times, paid a quite large bill for exam and two pair of glasses, one driving, one reading—quite a few hundred dollars…and now I get a notice, atop the bad prescription and the fact they only offer plastic lenses—that they’re sending the 16.00 to collection. I rather hit the ceiling, dashed off a check with the note—‘y’know, you could have billed me for this any of the three recent trips I’ve made to your office’—and decided on a new optometrist anyway.<\/p>\n
So, well, I’m pretty satisfied with the new guy. And Costco recommended a local company that does glass, right over from my house. They grind their own lenses. So I have hopes. Meanwhile I’m still looking for the darn glasses, which are very hard to find—being titanium wire no-frame, mostly lens. I’ve looked under furniture.
