The Sewing Mom

My husband finally managed to get himself to the eye doctor just before Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to sit down and pick out his new eyeglasses. The optometrist did give him his prescriptions though, so now he can really go anywhere to get his new eyeglasses and he does have a style in mind.

He prefers the half rim style where the lenses isn’t fully encased. He also needs bifocals, so his lenses have to be able to accommodate that requirement. Since it is Cyber Tuesday, I’ve been doing some online shopping and I think I have found something that even my conservative husband would like.

I found these stainless steel half-rim frames at Zenni Optical.  They have hundreds of Holiday frames to choose from and prices are extremely reasonable. They also offer regular bifocals or progressive lenses, anti-scratch coating and UV protection on the lenses.  Since my husband does have his lens prescription we just have to do some simple facial measurements and then we can order online direct from Zenni. There’s no middle man and so it can save us a ton of cash, very important this time of year.  The glasses come with a hard carrying case and a micro-fiber lens cleaning cloth which we use both all the time and can never have enough of.

I think I’ll be measuring my husband’s face when he gets home!
