I woke up with a horrible case of vertigo (and the accompanying nausea). I figured it was just allergies and would pass after I'd been up for a while. I tried to go to work since the first thing I had to do today was a coorporate portait of a client on location. I didn't even make it out of my driveway. I emailed the office and had them reschedule and crawled back into bed. I was feeling a bit better by late afternoon and managed to make to the eye Dr. for a checkup. I knew I needed new glasses. My old ones haven't been right since I got them but that was a long time ago. I got computer glasses last year but could not afford new distance glasses. I was figuring $300 for the glasses. It's what they have always cost in the past. Not this time. This time, $145! The frames, which were the ones I liked the best, were $35! I'm thrilled. Also, the Dr. told me my new glasses will be 20% stonger than my old ones and my old ones were pretty strong. You know the giant E at the top of the eye chart? Without my glasses I could not see it. At all.
vertigo is nearly gone now and I hope it stays gone now the weekend is here.

Maybe something is going around? A number of people have complained about the same symptoms.
I am glad that the frames were so cheap.

Glad the new glasses were less pricey than you expected and I hope they make a difference for you, hon.

Thanks, I am so excited and feel stupid I waited so long. I just thought I wasn't going to be able to afford them until now.
Vertigo and Glasses
I've been giving serious consideration to getting glasses for the computer, besides my bifocals. My job has me on the computer most of the work day, and of course when I'm not working...well, here I am, aren't I? I squint terribly, trying to see the screen. You know, if the clock strikes 12 while I'm squinting, my face will freeze that way. So.... I need to make an appointment with the opthamologist first; I'm due, anyway. FanSee

Thanks, that's just how it felt. If I moved my head at all the whole world started rocking and roiling.

ETA: Just went and checked and yeah, they have something similar to what I got for about $75. I assume shipping etc. on top of that. I have to pay an extra $9 since they are so strong. Still, nearly half the price!
