I tried bi-focals twice over a decade.  I kept falling down the stairs with 
them, so had to revert to single spectacles and readers.

I have no pronouns please do not refer to me.

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: Chinese Red Death Flu

2020-06-03 Thread Greg Fiorentino via Mercedes
The last time I got new lenses at Costco (reusing the frames I had bought at 
Costco about 25 years ago) they made an error and put the wrong lenses into one 
of the frames. They made another pair and gave me the incorrect ones for free.

So how does that work if the prescription is bad? Do you go back to the eye 
doctor to get a new exam and they remake the glasses?

Buying internet bifocal/progressive glasses from China labs is not the way
to get well fitted spectacles. I assume yours came from a decent optician
who fitted them in person.

So far all I've gotten from those sources is single visionreading glasses,
but as near as I can tell they did a decent job with the PD and spherical
coordinate.

I’ve never encountered any issues with perception since I’ve been wearing them. 
Not sure if that’s more likely if the correction is for distance rather than 
close up.
