Glasses for working

Have you ordered glasses online? I'm actually wearing the cheapest pair I could get- that's about 20$ for black plastic frames and lenses with no anti-scratch coating, no bells or whistles. They're working just as glasses should, and seem to be durable. For the price, I ordered three pairs with different frames. PM me if you'd like the website I've used in the past.

You wouldn't happen to be talking about "Zenni Optical," would you? That's the website I'm looking at right now, and all of the glasses are about $20. It's fantastic! My last pair of frames costed close to $300, and I can't believe I ever paid that much. There's so many choices on this online shop, that I'm having a difficult time narrowing it down.

The main two I was deciding between are different in size- one is smaller, slightly "cat eye", and the other one is much larger. I thought it would make it easier for me to choose the smaller one if I knew it was less likely to slip down my nose and annoy me, but I think I found a bigger one that would actually sit on my face okay.

Maybe I'll just stick with the smaller one, so I don't have anything to worry about.

There are a lot of sites now with about the same business model. I've actually used eyebuydirect.

When entering information, you'll need "pupillary distance" There are a few ways for the layman to measure, but I used a method using old glasses and a dry erase marker. While looking straight ahead and wearing the glasses, move the marker toward your pupils and place a dot on the glasses to represent where your pupil is, then measure the distance between dots for the pupillary distance.

Realize that all the special things add up on these sites once you add the lenses. I've been quite happy with what is provided even without any anti scratch or anti UV coatings- they've all held up quite well and I'm pretty hard on my glasses. They even offer prescription sunglasses for cheap.

I second the wrap, like for sports, to keep them on your face. You do not want to lose your glasses into the soiled brief of a patient. Especially if they have C Diff. Ask me how I know this.

I'm dying just imagining this scene.

Oh no!

My glasses have special ear-pieces that wrap around the ear. It looks like I have normal frames, but they don't slide off my face.

My glasses used to slide when I had to suction a sleeping toddler's trach, with his back to me and the bed against the wall. I had to lean over him, with my head almost upside down to get at the trach. (DON'T wake him up!)

When I switched to this style earpiece, my glasses stayed put.

Yeahí ½í¸ it was as bad as it sounds.

I just bought 2 pairs from zenni optical, $17.50 a piece. That's frames and lenses with anti glare coating. Shipping and all I paid $54. I bought a smaller pair and a slightly larger pair. The smaller pair fit perfectly but, for the larger pair I bought some of those little silicone sticky nose pad things off of Amazon and they don't slide down at all now.

My only complaint is they attract fingerprints and smears way worse than my previous pair, I recommend getting their "anti glare, anti fingerprint" lenses if that's something that would bother you.

I've had my glasses fall off my face while pulling my pants up in the restroom. Unfortunately, they tumbled onto the bathroom floor (I died a little on the inside)... Fortunately, it wasn't in someone's soiled briefs.

I found these little attachments for the arms of your glasses that help them hook behind your ears better. I did end up getting some larger frames, but I feel like if I get some of those, it'll remedy the problem nicely.

Same place I got mine! I think mine were $20. I just can't get over how great the prices are, and I love the new glasses I'm getting so much more than the ones I paid hundreds for! I went ahead and got the anti-glare (why not, when it's that cheap?) and I'm going to order another pair soon, to keep at home.
