Don’t Pay For My Mistake, Learn From It!

Jul 28, 2010

When it comes to glasses and vision, I of all people know the importance of having the appropriate prescription and glasses or contacts that suit you. Part of the reason my vision is so bad now is because in high school I refused to admit to the fact that I had problems seeing and instead resorted to squinting and using friends glasses which weren’t designed for me.

I’m paying for it now. Believe me.

In any event, I also know just how expensive eyeglasses are and that for most people, especially if you don’t have insurance it’s next to impossible to actually afford glasses, let alone afford the exam.

Thankfully there is now a wonderful company Zenni Optical that makes glasses both affordable and stylish. So for those of you who have been putting of purchasing glasses or are taking the route I did when I was younger—don’t. You’ll thank yourself in the long run and you won’t have to deal with the horrible vision I deal with now. Sure, there are people with worse vision, but being preventative is a good thing and believe me when I say that I learned that the hard way. Yes, I sure did.
