[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 132136, member: 1697"] I never got glasses online. I used to have great vision insurance, but not anymore. NO vision at all.....bummer is even my sons glasses, - not needed for seeing, but to protect his good eye and his surgical eye- technically THOSE glasses are SUPPOSED to be covered, but, as yet I cannot get any eyeglass place to write up the order properly, cannot get the eye doctor to write the Rx properly, and then the insurance keeps telling me sons Medicare should be primary....they keep "forgetting" he is NOT a senoir citizen or something..... So- we go to WalMart, now. Now, you will not get the same service as you might get at a regular eye docs office (altho some of the eye doctor offices we have been in were not such great places, either) BUT for $44 I got my sons last pair, and the pair before it and the pair before those....... I cannot tell you how long they MIGHT have lasted.....LOL.......a teacher at school took his first pair the first week he had them, (for safekeeping) and she lost those. The 2nd pair got lost who knows where the first DAY. I guess all I can really say is they last long enough to get lost..LOL- which, well, is not really saying much, LOL. I got 2 pairs at Meijers - the 2 pairs for $100. On one pair the nosepeice tangles very strong and tight in my hair, like superglue......so, I am not loseing mine, I do not think? They are bifocals, and my first bifocals, and I HATE them a LOT. BUT they seem to be holding up to all the abuse I bestow upon them.have had them maybe 18 months so far? [/QUOTE]
