- Of course, it all depends on your prescription! One hour eyeglass
- places could never fill my eyeglass prescription, especially in one
- hour!
-
- Also, it's a good idea to have your opthalmologist check the
- eyeglasses after you get the prescription filled. My glasses usually
- cost about $300+ and my doctor "always" makes sure the prescription
- was filled accurately.

- If you are one of those fashion plates who wears his/her glasses down
- at the end of your nose, or up on your head, then this message posting
- has nothing to do with you; I'm talking about seriously ** seeing **
- thru the lenses and having your vision improve because of the lenses
- prescribed :-)
