OT-another zenni optical thumbs up

To add to this OT thread, I'm trying out some B&L Multifocal contact lens from the optical department at Costco. So far, pretty good for distance and not too bad close-up- not quite good enough for close inspection work.

I bought a pair of progressive bifocals from Zenni Optical right after Christmas and they came last week. They seem to be every bit as good as the spensive glasses I got last spring. Steve

I looked over that site - don't see anything that might pass as safety glasses, sent them email, no response - where do you get rugged safety glasses at a reasonable price - of course I can get a pair every other year for "free" via my vision care coverage, but I trash glasses faster than that, so ????

I hate safety glasses and much prefer using a lexan face shield instead, over my bifocals. Safety glasses are distortion-prone, scratch easily, and are way too expensive.

true enough (reverting to totally annoying top posting, because that's the way I prefer to read posts), however I like the convenience, and I want some, so ???

snip-------

2nd order arrived yesterday, with the holiday and Ford in between- the order took 2 weeks to arrive. This time I got memory titanium and coated lenses plus a slight tint.

Definately get the coated lenses if you drive at night -it makes a large difference.

Still under 50$ delivered with nicer frames and the options.

Somebody wanted safety glasses? they have goggles but I didn't find any safety glasses either.

SO anyway whoever clued me in to Zenni Thanks!
