Wtf are progressives and singles  

Progressives r the new bifocals but instead of having a line now they blend them together.  the top and bottom r different prescriptions.
U read thru the bottom n see distance thru the top.  Problem is the field of vision is smaller so you have to turn your head a lot instead of turning your eyes.

Singles mean that the lens is just one rx and no matter where u look thru the glass u can see far or wutever u need.  So u can move your eyes around n look thru the whole lens instead of turning your head and keeping your eyes looking thru either the top or bottom.

all the getbiggers who were high school or college age in the 70s 80s or 90s will need to know this

Get some thick but tasteful frames and lenses

because it sucks doing rows with glasses on because they fall off and every time you open the dishwasher or put them on after a shower you go blind, but a good pair of glasses can look sexy as fuck

Just try on a lot of frames, see what fits your face, and don't cheap out because the shit is on your face, and will be the first thing people see when they talk to you

I have lenses and glasses.  Some mornings dont want to bother with lenses and I have allergies which makes them a pain sometimes.  I now have progressives and really like them. 

Haha! four eyes!

Dam. At lens crafters. They want 539!  Jesus. Progressives. They advice anti glare. Prolly up selling. I kinda wanted single lens so I wouldn't have to turn my head so much.

Coach is right, being progressive makes everyone poor.

Think Leonid Breznev if he'd worn hipster glasses.
