    The only thing that lasted more than a few seconds were the tattoos these gave you

    Lost a contact at some point this morning. Had to run home and get another one, an extra set and some glasses, my stomach must be weak

    Bruh, always carry extra contacts around. I keep like 3 sets in my gym bag that I bring into work and at least one extra set in my vehicle. And a pair of glasses

    my eyes get all weird during spring cause of allergies so this is a hard lesson I learned many times in the past

    Extra glasses a must, or basically a set that goes with you everywhere.

    I don't wear glasses primarily so just buy cheap ones from 39dollarglasses.com, I've gotten a few pairs from there that have lasted me awhile


    I really just need to get the laser surgery already

    Yeah I've got one of Stephanie's in the LC.

    So I got her a pair (due to the whole what happened) in the event that she might accidentally break her current set.

    When I got her pair, I got it covered via insurance (hadn't even thought about that, was going to pay cash). No deductible.

    Lady said if I want to get her yet another pair, if I don't wear any, she could bill insurance as if I'm getting a set myself since I'm on her insurance.

    Got her 2 sets that day.

    That's cool, I only get one pair a year and a yearly checkup and prescription with my insurance. But I do what Ryan said and use the prescription to order other pairs from 39dollar glasses

    Yeah, that's how she has it too. One pair annually.

    But since I don't wear glasses :anonymous:

    Never heard of 39dollar glasses; I'll have to check it out for her.

    it's a legit site, the $39 is just the baseline for the cheapest you can get but they sell more expensive higher quality pairs/options if you want.

    surprisingly my work doesn't offer a vision plan so I've always just gone to Costco's optometry dept, they do regular yearly check ups for like $99

    I wanted to go there but their office isn't covered by my insurance... oh well at least if you're savvy glasses can be pretty cheap to do out of pocket

    2 years apart, 2021 vs now. Lake Oroville reservoir in Norcal. There's actually an old mining ghost town at the bottom of that lake (Bidwells Bar)
