Sorry........but no....you have to have certain standards!!! Glasses on strings is one step away from elasticated waste trousers and only 2 from the coffin!. I'd be buying lots more glasses before I stooped that low!!!!
Hi there Boyband,Hi , I have an annual eye test ( I am 72 ) and again all OK and legally allowed to drive without glasses.
However , on long drives my eyes can sometimes feel tired , so I spoke to the eye guy who said variable focal might help but no guarantees.
Without doubt my vision is better but and it's a big but that they really take getting use to.
The glasses have to fit exactly and I have to point my head at what I am looking at for the subject to be totally in focus rather just keep my head still and move my eyes.
These frames / glasses where not really expensive but would I purchase this combination again , don't really know but please be aware that variable focal lens take time to get use to.
Not Specsavers , we have moved house and gone to a well regarded independent optician locally. My wife has just had a new pair of varifocals from them and says they are the best she has had in years, both frames and the sight . Mind you she did choose real Horn frames which combined with the very best lenses cost me a kings ransom, but it was a worthwhile investmentI wonder if it's a new trend for opticians to report this. I was told the same at my last eye test, as were a lot of other people I've spoken to. I can't believe there's been a sudden outbreak of early stage cataracts! Specsavers. by any chance?
Plastic lenses?Just to update this ... I managed to trash another pair of glasses yesterday by standing too close to a bonfire - the heat damaged both lenses It's a tough life out in the country
Never had this happen before, even when I've been close enough to singe my hair. I've got a polycarbonate face shield that I wear for strimming & brushcutting ... will use that next time. A lot cheaper to replace if it melts.
I'm amazed you could stand close enough to do that....have you got skin made of asbestos!!??
Plastic lenses?
I'm trying very hard not to form mental pictures of trousers with an elasticated waste system.Sorry........but no....you have to have certain standards!!! Glasses on strings is one step away from elasticated waste trousers and only 2 from the coffin!. I'd be buying lots more glasses before I stooped that low!!!!
NO it doesnt...................No, no.
Elasticated waste sounds just fine!!
