Help, the time has come to buy new glasses. I haven’t had an exam in a couple of years, and my lenses I bought at the time are shot. I used to buy two pairs of ‘scrips, sunshades and indoors. Budget won’t fit that this time around, so I’m thinking of giving the transition style lenses a go.

My biggest problem has been frames. I beat the snot out of them, unfortunately. There’s a good repair shop nearby that’s kept my current frames alive, but they are on their last legs. I prefer thinner traditional wire frames, as opposed to the wider plastic styles. I realize I sacrifice structural durability with these styles, but my wife won’t have it any other way.

Price is an issue as well. I’m not made of money, but I also realize you get what you pay for. C’est la vie, I guess. I’ll field all suggestions at this time though, I want this pair to last a while.

So, what do the rest of you vision-impaired folks use? What’s worked for you and what hasn’t?

TIA
