Had some anxiety around money when I left to get new glasses, but came back and didn't have to pay a cent, and I get all the bells and whistles for free. Ultra SV Hard Coating on both lens, and the ultraclear on my regular glasses, so pretty keen about that. Though I found out that my eyesight is pretty shit, left is +2 and right is +2.25. Not blind as a bat, but you know, pretty bad.

My daughter's are +4.75 and +4.25. One pair of multi focals with thinned out lenses and one pair of reading glasses $900 later. And the little brat doesn't even wear the multi focals.
