AM DROWNING IN UNI WORK FLIPPER GET HELP

Also, I just picked up my glasses from the optometrists' - the frames I've been wearing for the last couple of years, with new lenses. While they were getting done I was wearing my newly-acquired spare pair, which already had the new prescription.

I hadn't realised until now how much I like these frames, and how noticable the difference was. Both pairs have similar lens shapes, with thin frames that don't even go around the bottom halves of the lenses. Both are light.

But my regular glasses have blue-green frames and the newer ones have steel-grey, and the arms are slightly differently designed.

And these are the ones that feel right, that look right where they're vaguely in my field of vision, that are me. It's like I got my face back.

You know, I recently did the same thing - took my old frames in to get new lenses...and they actually charged me more money than if I'd gotten new frames.

Not to mention, they ruined the sunglasses frames (they don't fit on my face they way they used to, which I find irritating).

Wait, how do they justify new lenses being cheaper than lenses + frames? Because srsly.
