Cheap Glasses - other than Costco

[Prudence]

A few years ago when I asked my eye doctor about it (before it became big business) I was told I'm not a good candidate. My aunt is the only person I know with worse vision than my own and she had it done - but she had to have it done twice right off the bat and had lots of complications, including lots of pain. I already have some complications of my own from various medications that have left lasting light sensitivity issues. I wouldn't want to risk blindness when glasses don't really bother me.

Can't say I'd never do it, but I'd like there to be a better understanding of long-term results before I went for it. I think the most compelling argument against, for me, is hearing that the docs Ryan worked for at the UW Eye Center don't really recommend it. If the docs wouldn't have it done to themselves, I'm not going to rush out and do it.

Plus, I like the ability to take them off for presto! Instant personal magnifying glass! Comes in handy for when I'm possessed by the need to do particularly fine embroidery work. Plus I'm the only one in the office who can read the stamped codes on the filing cabinet locks.
