I prefer the quality of glasses he offers though, they don’t scratch up like Walmart shit. My last prescription would do me just fine, if only I could get them new in a new set of frames.

That $300 he’s quoting you is mostly the price of the glasses my man

My first prescription glasses were $40 plus tax, for the exam and two sets of frames and lenses.

I get the inflation thing and all, but when did they decide to start fucking nearsighted people right in the wallet?

Once Luxottica bought the vast majority of glasses brands and buying off all the optometrists to only stock their stuff
