Yes, I know lots of people can go online and get cheap glasses. But if your prescriptions over -10 you can’t, and this is the best way I’ve found of getting cheaper glasses, because the NHS only give you ~£30 towards the cost of thinning the lenses.https://twitter.com/DawnHFoster/status/1100767908366553088 …

You also have no choice but to get thick plastic frames because your lenses are so thick even after being thinned to the highest possibility, so no cool hipster wire frames for us lot.

I know people are trying to be helpful, and thank you, but most people replying think “bad eyesight” is -5 diopters, when for lots of us it’s “the NHS pay for our eye tests, give us money off specs, and warn us to watch out for retinal detachment.”

Replying to @learnincurve11
The number of conversations I’ve had where people explain no, their eyesight’s “so bad!” they can’t drive without specs. I have had to call my flatmates in regularly if I knock my glasses off my nightstand because I cannot see them whatsoever.

Also as a baby my parents thought there was something wrong with me because I never made eye contact and bashed into everything while walking/crawling
