My mother insisted on reimbursing me for that.E.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05595667311126848588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911917248033923490.post-25174693846527822072008-01-08T10:56:00.000-06:002008-01-08T10:56:00.000-06:00It took me a while to understand the same choice t...It took me a while to understand the same choice that BoyDucky made about his glasses, but it's such a frequently used item that it makes sense now.Revanchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07293868300535734672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911917248033923490.post-35061930629802632132008-01-08T10:18:00.000-06:002008-01-08T10:18:00.000-06:00I'm lucky I no longer require glasses with my visi...I'm lucky I no longer require glasses with my vision. I was born with nystagmus and one eye is 20/20 while the other is 200/20. The eye doctors are surprised at my range of vision, well over 180 degree field of view with one eye. No problem driving however I do lack depth perception so night time is a little difficult.<BR/><BR/>My wife wears glasses and we spend the extra on higher quality lenses. She got some nice frames too since she is going to have this pair for awhile. At the same time she wears contacts and those only last about 2 weeks per pair. She can go 2-3 months at a time. Vision is important though and I'm glad I at least have some vision insurance to help cover the costs.Jim ~ mydebtblog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831157334066115572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911917248033923490.post-50063359987870943422008-01-07T21:42:00.000-06:002008-01-07T21:42:00.000-06:00I understand.

There are some basics in life which we use so often that it's nice to invest in something which will make our daily lives better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
