Default Anyone Wear Glasses?

I just ordered three pair of prescription glasses and only paid $52 including shipping - one pair is even sunglasses. I got this site from my anatomy teacher last term. Another girl from class got three pair for about $55 and they're nice.

I'll let you all know how I like them when they come in.

Dang wish I knew my perscription. Actually I need a new one. My eyes have gotten worse since being pregnant. I hate having to wait to get insurance when you start a new job. GGRRR

Laura - It really is. At first I thought $8 glasses would be crappy, I was really surprised to see the huge selection. I ended up ordering some funky rainbow glasses. Dh says they're ugly. I figured what the heck for $12.

Amber - I don't believe it's a scam. I know two people who have already purchases glasses there.

This is awesome.. thank you! I'm ordering a couple pairs of fun, funky glasses just as backup pairs. The boys have insanely strong grips and love to rip my glasses off my face, so I'm sure I'm going to need new ones soon!
Two pairs of glasses for 30 bucks... you can't beat that!

I don't think it's a scam either however DH is a prude, so I humor him.

We ordered 4 pairs for $51.00. 2 pairs are sunglasses. I hope they fit. I ordered some red frames for me. Hope that was a good choice.

My glasses arrived yesterday!
DH was teasing, saying they were going to be made out of aluminum foil or something, since they were so cheap. But they are great! I just took some photos, so here they are. (Ignore my looks, I haven't showered or anything yet, but wanted to show the glasses!)

Funky green and black ones:

Side shot (with Evan):




Black and Red front shot:

Side shot:


Sorry they're big, but I wanted to make sure you could see the glasses.

I bought them as back up pairs, so definitely worth the twenty-some bucks I paid!

Sarah - I LOVE THEM!! The green and black ones would have been my choice also if I were to order from them but I havent had my eyes rechecked in sometime so guaranteed my rx would have changed & especially after having a baby! I love both of them on you, great deal!
