glasses owners/wearers

i need to change my lens, it scratched up really bad so i went back to value optical and they said it will take two weeks until i get it back.

problem is i cant stay two hrs without it and its my first glasses, and i dont have a spare....what do i have to do?

buy a new one?

is there somewhere else that offer some alternative option or can do it before two weeks?

I am really dependent on it.

[Halfbreed07]

no, these things need prep time and its imported, unless ya using some low generic prescription its gonna take time.

[pugboy]

there are a few labs which make the lens locally for most of the optical places
their turnaround time is usually a week which is why the places say 1-2 weeks

[SUPAstarr]

If you have the cash get a test done for contact lenses, an use disposable contact lenses

[Sully]

Goto Pricesmart and get a pair of the glasses that they sell. It's cheap and a good temporary alternative.

[mitsu_chick941]

didnt think of contacts, thanks SUPA


Halfbreed07, AR coating and transitions that i think needs to be a lil darker now

[Bareback]

You should always have a second pair of glasses in case one breaks or needs to be repaired for some reason. I have been doing this for years; replace the lenses in the old one with your basic set of lenses so you can watch TV, exercise, etc in these and then bling out on the other pair that you wear to work, when yuh limin, etc..............

[mitsu_chick941]

its my first pair dude, didnt really think of gettin a spare

[Bareback]

It was more advice than criticism. As in take this opportunity to get a new pair and keep the old one as back up.

[SUPAstarr]

Thats why i have have contacts they are a cheap alternative/back up 200 of a box with 3 pairs, each pair last over 3 week well maintained, an you can even sleep with some

[Skanky]

Try another optometrist.I lost my glasses once and had brand new ones back in a week from Ferreira's Trincity.

BTW you self doh know belt buckle will scratch glasses.

In that case even if you go with contacts you will need shades.

[mitsu_chick941]

You think so?
I personally never had a problem with the transitions, and with it i never had to change glasses when leaving the car and going into the office, mines were polarised and provided good protection in midday sun.

once you take them out an clean them everyday or every other day an leave them soakin for a day or so, they last longer. I use Hydraclear plus, an im allowed to sleep with them one or two nights. But im a wotless slacker, so i sleep whole week with them. If you sleep with contacts too long tho you eye will develop an irritation, an become supersensitive to light an become uncomfortable to wear. I've been there a couple times. I actually use one pair of lenses for a month with no difference or diminishin strength in the lenses

[tr1ad]

had the same as you

tint on transitions too light...
plus the sunlgasses are better for driving

I had a problem with keeping the 2 accessible, so i stuck with the transitions, and with the polarization visibility was clear but not harsh.
Don't have need for tested glasses anymore, too bad cause the Galant has a nice padded holder in the center console.
