Future of glasses?

Recommended Posts

I have been waiting for ages for glasses with windshield wipers!

Anyone who wears glasses and once came into a warm room out of the cold knows what I`m talking about... ;)

Works the same going from the warm room to cold outdoors.

I have progressive tri-focals. The first zone is clear glass and is to eliminate me having to take my glasses off for close work. I have perfect vision up to about 18". My congenitally elongated cornea means I have always been myopic, and after hitting and passing 50, I now have problems with middle distance. At 650$ a pop, I would totally be interested in looking into these.

If you don't mind me asking, how much are you spending on a pair of glasses now?

Right now about $350.

I personally don't wear glasses. If I did I'm not so sure that I would pay that much money relying on what the internet/tv says. I would much rather have known someone who has really used them before I would consider even buying them. I think you can only get reading glasses at Walmart and places like that.

There are people out there wearing them. They were created locally in my area.

I had the reverse problem. People would turn the AC up in the unit, jump out of the truck on a summer day, and couldn't see anything!
