You know you’re an old fart when going to the eye doctor is a major event. I ordered two new pairs of glasses. This time the progressives will also be transitions. Oooooh, babie!
Warby Parker's quality is...unimpressive. Is there a better place to get decent frames? These are a year old and that gross bubbling thing in the plastic is already happening at the nose
I even paid extra for the super ultra mega thinnest possible lenses and...they're not really much thinner at all. Oh and my idiot bitch vision insurance didn't reimburse me at all because vision insurance is a scam don't get it
Trying on my pinkish lipsticks as a screen test🌺
Kinda tempted to record a video in which I'd show off my entire collection😍
It includes a lot of really awesome indie brands that sadly went out of business, destroyed by Sephora😢
My eyeglasses are being held together with superglue and I just got my new prescription. Where are people buying eyeglasses online nowadays? In the past I’ve gone through Zenni and a couple others. Just trying to see if anything has changed as of late.
So I've recently become one of the people who have to regularly take their glasses off in order to see certain distances. I've asked my ophthalmologist, and there is no technology (e.g. varifocals or contact lenses) that I can use to avoid this action at the moment.
When I do take my glasses off, I am currently biting the legs in order to keep them handy. This is, at best, unsightly. I cannot keep them on the end of my nose (too big), or lift them up onto my hair (too greasy).
So I'm considering buying a glasses cord and let them dangle when they're off.
I'm just wondering - fedi #glasses wearers - what other options do I have to keep them handy? Alternatively, what cool variations can you recommend on the trusty glasses cord?
For the past two weeks, I’ve been using a new [[eyeglasses embedded]] camera to secretly snap photos and record videos of strangers in parks, on trains, inside stores and at restaurants. (I promise it was all in the name of journalism.) I wasn’t hiding the camera, but I was wearing it, and no one noticed...
