About a month ago my glasses broke, luckily it was just the frame, but the other day my contact tore and it was my last one. I had an appointment with the eye doctor but they billed my insurance wrong last time and now I can’t get an eye exam done for a few more weeks because of money and I can go somewhere else and get it done cheaper and with better customer service. I am really getting so tired of people who don’t do their jobs and have been thinking that maybe I will get my eyeglasses online at ZenniOptical.com. They have glasses that are very close to what I have and since my prescription is still okay I should be able to order new glasses just for now. I need something that will stay together, right now i have super glued the lens to the frame and it’s working but I don’t know how long that will last.

I love checking out their selection and they have even been featured on the Clark Howard Show so I figure it’s a good company and worth the time to check them out. The only downside to this is that I’m sure the eye doctor is going to refuse to give me the prescription information. So I may have to fight with them on that one, but I think it may be worth it. I’m so tired of having to spend $100 on eyeglasses that I need to see and to drive.

A few weeks ago I was sitting at my desk and my glasses fell off, I picked them up and the frame was broken. I’m guessing my wonderful 6 month old niece did it. She loves to pull on them and I’m sure it didn’t help keep them in good shape. Of course it’s not just her fault her 1 1/2 year old brother did the same thing! I’m also sure just normal wear and tear caused an issue too.

Anyway now I am on the hunt for new eyeglasses that are cheep as it looks like my insurance won’t kick in until after I don’t have it anymore. Nice huh? I have to get new insurance, but I’m not sure I can wait 6 months to do so. I have found a couple of cool sites one that you may have heard of through the Clark Howard Show. The website is Zenni Optical and they have a really cool selection of frames starting at $8 now that I can afford. I found some frames that match what I already have, but I know my prescription is still off so I guess I have to wait until I can get that done to order anything.
