The optometrist recommended seamless bifocals. I have a very painful nerve condition in my face (atypical trigeminal neuralgia), so this is what I need with glasses: the lightest weight frames possible- known as ultra light- with the lightest weight lenses possible and automatically darkening lenses so I don't need the weight of sunglasses. The cheapest frames brought the total to $250 on the site the insurance worked with.

The frames are $20 on the cheap site. Everything else in the cost is the lenses.

As for why I have to buy them online- I don't want anyone touching my face unless it's absolutely necessary. The exam was painful enough.

American for-profit healthcare is fucking awesome.

I've had the exact opposite experience. Last time trying glasses at a local place, they hurt my eyes and couldn't figure out how to adjust them properly. Every pair I've purchased on Zenni has lasted multiple years of me sleeping in them or doing contact sports in them. I still have multiple pairs kicking around my house or car as spares.

...you sleep with them on? How?

[–] skyspydude1 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I do this quite a bit too. I can fall asleep insanely quickly, so sometimes I'm just chilling on the couch watching something, and then I'm out. Then when I wake up I have to go digging through my couch to figure out where the heck my glasses went

See that's the weird part. They stay on my face. I've always been a restless sleeper, and I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I learned to keep them on when asleep.

I've been making an active effort to not do so the last... Couple of years I guess. It's a bit more comfortable when I remove them, but I'd say maybe half the time I still just forgot to take them off.

I don't know, I have since I was a kid. My eyes are REALLY BAD so I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I just learned to sleep in them.
