Just a thought... each time you go, take a zip drive with you and have them copy the note to there as well.

You can come back and read this in a week.

Won't be long now and you will be able to look down 2 miles at those wedgies and smile again.

I know you are having trouble seeing again so made the print a bit larger.

That's pretty pricey.  Don't they have anything like Zenni down under?  This is the best, least expensive place I've found to buy glasses, and they have some of the coolest frames ever: http://www.zennioptical.com/

Screw squinting, just increase zoom on the screen. 

Heck I still increas zoom. and my last eye exam put me at   20 15 

that's a decrease from 20 10 when I was still in HS back in 198hurumphhurmph

$440 AUD [about $460 USD these days] is the lens only ...using the original frames.

They're a grind for astigmatism....I'm neither long-sighted nor short.

The sunnies will be probably the same price...same script...but polarised coating adds to it.

The frames were about $260 probably ten years ago [good quality titanium]...

re '20 15' ... Terry is 20 - 200 .   Needless to say she doesn't drive...

Thanks for the font, Dave.... but it'd be 'up', not down....

A 'wedgie'...

Im cheap mate, Specsavers, FTW. 
2 pair for $200, one of them sunnies, the other transitions.

...or you can get ready-made things at the chemist for about $2 .... if it's just magnification....

I'm in the same boat as you, waiting on my new glasses. I did get new frames though. Thank God for optical insurance. I only paid about $500 for them. I got no line bifocals, new frames, and polarized sunglasses that stick to the lenses with tiny magnets. Without the insurance, they would have cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $1000.

Most of that cost is in the lenses, because I'm damn near blind (and I don't drive either, lol). My share of the frames was only $25, and the magnet sunglasses were $129.

They said I should get them by Thursday, which will make the total for them  2 weeks.

My brother had 20-5 vision and could  "split binaries" with his naked eye when he would come out at night when I had a telescope and lots of time.

I'm 20-250 in one eye and 20-400 in the other with astigmatism in one and not the other.  They never match my lenses right.  Been like that since I was 9 or 10.

It's a bummer.

That's GIGO, unfortunately....as you go through the process..."which is better...this....or this....?" ...

One...Two....One....Two..and half the time there is no difference anyway!
I just picked my new ones up on Monday, Specsavers took 4 days, new lenses and frames, so i sure can't complain.

Same here for my vision.  Except I had severe astigmatism in my left eye, and moderately severe in my right eye.  That was until last year.  I had cataract surgery in both eyes, and had implants put in my eyes...now I see better than I have since I was a little kid before I had to get glasses at the age of 8!  I don't need glasses for anything anymore, not even for reading!  I am on Medicare and it paid for it all, except for $700 for each eye for the cost of the implants, because of my astigmatism.  The surgeon was able to get rid of all the astigmatism in my right eye, and about 95% of it in my left eye.  I am a happy camper now! 

I can't stop laughing.  (not at you guys, just your comments)  I think of this from Family Guy.

Yes, but that's exactly what it's like....

Actually...that clip was almost verbatim....
