Just call me four eyes from now on...

Well i finally managed to pick a pair of frames on saturday, i had originally found the pair i liked then they told me they could not put transition lenses in ,those are the ones that turn into sunglasses as well, so had to choose bigger ones, which i really did not want, but i found a pair i like they are called Mooks, and have the top in two colours black and i forget the other colour around the ears in plastic and the bottoms have no frame at all, cost me another 65 dollars extra but worth it, so in ten days i will no longer be blind., i can hardly wait, it was not that i did not want to have to wear glasses, i never had the money to actually get them until now, at now 815 dollars they are not cheap.

But yes it will take a while for me to get used to them, and see myself wearing them on a daily basis, but i guess in no time i will think nothing of it.

hey Carole. join the crowd! i think i've seen Mooks- i think they're so trendy. i wear a soft contact in my left eye and a hard lens in my right eye due to a terrible stigmatism and keritosis. plus i also use 2 pairs of reading glasses !!! Oh Lord! i'm glad you'll be able to see so much better! shame eye care is so expensive

Ain't that the truth, just got rang up by them and have to go back and get measured again, the girl was new and did not do it properly, pain really, as now i will have to wait even longer to get them, yes Karen i thought they were reasonably trendy glasses for an ole girl like me, mind you some of them are so way out,we have this one shop that had glasses i never knew existed, you would have to be rather out there and eccentric to wear them i think.

Yep and now i have a sore tooth , feeling hot and cold senstivity so that means a trip to the beloved dentist soon, more expense, getting older sure has its minuses eh? lol.
