I got a new pair of glasses from Zenni Optical last Friday. For awhile now I’ve been looking for a smaller (but not too small) circular lens – kinda going for the Steve Jobs or John Lennon look. I think this pair has nailed it. I’m pretty happy with how they look, which I think is a little unusual for me.
I continue to be shocked how inexpensive glasses are at Zenni. These – were under $60, even with a bunch of special magic options (which yes, probably do nothing) added to the lenses.
And – since they’re so price-effective, when I realized that I accidentally ordered a -4.75 instead of -4.25 for my right eye, I didn’t even mind just ordering a second pair. I thought I could tell the right eye was a little off, so I guess it’ll be better when I get the strength that the doctor ordered?
Oh – and I have 2 old pairs (plus whichever of these is less good to see through) that I’m going to donate to the Lions. Because (1) I heard someone recently say how they used donated Lions glasses when they were a kid, and that made a difference in their life, and (2) because I feel more and more compelled to give more and more back to the world recently, and what a small thing that is – to donate glasses that will otherwise just sit in my drawer unused.
