"Do you think there's a glasses divide?

As for seperate sunglasses you don't need them as I have a covering which makes them go dark in sunlight (although it does have to be direct sunlight not through a window).
But those reacto-light ones never go dark enough for sunlight & they also stay a little tinted when you sit by a window.
It's a pain in the arse, but I'm a swap em over constantly type of girl. (Thank god for BOGOF at the speccy savers!) X"*what she said* And its a weird tint, creeps me out! Although I do have to ask if I'm still wearing my sunglasses and let people know I don't think I'm a diva wearing my sunglasses indoors, I've either forgotten I have them on or I left the house without bringing my normal ones! | |||

When I went back with them I got £170 back that I wasn’t expecting - I’d thought they’d be oh right well it’s your own hard luck if they don’t suit you - but the cash back was a bonus xx
I buy my posh frames from eBay - a shop that sells last seasons stuff, ex display - I got some Ted Baker ones that were only £15 and sent them to Glasses Complete to re-glaze with my prescription (just £30)… swanky glasses for less than £50
does that make me look scroogey that comment? … just I have … well … probably 6 or possibly 10 pairs of glasses because I like them to go with stuff lol "Not at all! If i had a prescription low enough I'd do exactly thr same! | |||

" I got my first varifocals 3 years ago and I took to them straight away. They did advise I go for the top of the range ones, as they're easier to adjust to. But they're Hella expensive! Almost £300 just for the lenses - and that's not even thinned down or with special coatings! No more posh frames for me. £69 ones from speccie savers so I can take advantage of the BOGOF for my sunnies. X I did get the posh ones with the coatings etc etc but I hated them - I had to sit bolt upright to watch tv - if I slouched I couldn’t see - need to be able to slouch for tv right?

" Varifocals are the devil! I couldn’t get to grips with mine at all - had to go back to the constant swapping xx
Only got mine this year. First week was awful but by the second week it started to settle and now I don't notice. I did try for over a week but even the little shift between the two lense strengths made me feel nauseous and headachy x
I did get the headaches but no nausea and I almost gave up after a week but kept with it. They are not for everyone though.
