Certainly. Ask and ye shall receive. In order of receipt, last year:
http://zennioptical.com/cart/product.php?productid=691&cat=20&page=1 My ophthalmologist guessed $250. This pair was the first optically perfect pair he had tested, last year. http://zennioptical.com/cart/product.php?productid=517&cat=20&page=1 My ophthalmologist guessed $250. This pair was the second optically perfect pair he had tested. http://zennioptical.com/cart/product.php?productid=551&cat=8&page=1 Another ophthalmologist guessed $350. This pair was tested at a different lab -- optically perfect. Yes, I see several ophthalmologists. http://zennioptical.com/cart/product.php?productid=518&cat=20&page=1 My first pair of prescription sunglasses. By now I've stopped having them tested...they're fine. Optician guessed $350. http://zennioptical.com/cart/product.php?productid=431&cat=20&page=1 The last pair I have bought...and my absolute favorite pair. A different ophthalmologist guessed $300. Also fine, optically...according to his tests. The people who *sell them* can't tell any appreciable difference. The sunglasses were fun...I went to have them adjusted, and when she found out that I work on computers, the technician asked if I'd heard anything about these online eyeglass places. She'd heard of this one...Zen, or Zenn-eye, or something. With a big grin on my face I pointed to the glasses, and informed her where I'd bought them. The look on her face was priceless...her coworker had also ordered a pair from Zenni, and had been telling her about them. But, this was the first pair she'd been able to handle, herself, in person. She was suitably impressed...especially for a total cost of only $13. (It came with another order, so no additional shipping fees) -- Chuck Knight On Sat, Apr 4, 2009 at 11:23 PM, Paul <[email protected]> wrote: > > So far, all the frames I've bought (4 at Zenni, one at EBD) were at > least very good buys for me.
