I bought new glasses today, complete with a new prescription - and fabulously cheap. Why are glasses so freakin' expensive back home? My last pair (frames, lenses and consultation with an optometrist for new prescription) cost nearly $600. These cost $80 - framses, lenses, prescription and all. I am seriously going to buy a new pair of glasses every month for the rest of my stay here. Check them out!
What do you think?
The eyesockets of the glasses curve at the sides, and the lenses end before the curves begin. This is apparently some kind of new style - they had a wide selection of this kind of frames. I think they're pretty awesome, although they are a little weird!

Cool glasses! $80? Prices have gone up! Is that the going rate? I was thinking of having you pick me up another pair (and also one for Alex). Would you mind?

well, i deinitely could have gotten cheaper ones. the plastic frames were the cheapest (around $25) and then there were some that were more expensive than mine ($80 just for frames!) then i had a choice of thin lenses ($30) or thicker ones ($20) and given how thick my right lense is anyway, i went with the $30 thin pair. do you want frames, or frames w/ lenses?
