Why don't they sell glasses for near sighted ?!


Question: You can buy reading glasses in different powers. Why not sell near sighted glasses in different powers ? Besides doctor's fees to find out your numbers, why they are so much more expensive than reading glasses ? I think I need near sighted glasses but I do not bother because they are so expensive to get.

Because the correction varies wildly, far more than the correction needed for reading glasses, which are intended to focus within a very narrow distance field.

Where I live, there are two national chains advertising glasses (both frames and lenses) and eye exam for $99. If you can only see things that are close, this is worth saving up to get.

Impractical! Too many people want fashion eye wear and just realize for a moment how much it would cost the manufacturer and eventually you the consumer!

Come to my optical company and you will get the second pair free. Only one thing, the airline ticket will be the most expensive part of the deal.

Like someone else already said, there are many combinations of prescriptions. Eye examinations are so much more than just getting a prescription. Although few people seem to care until it is too late, eye HEALTH is so important. It is like any other preventive medicine....if you find it early, you can treat it. Everyone should get eye examinations...they really aren't that expensive. Sadly, more people pay more to get their hair done than to get an eye exam.
