Yeah, you don't want a buddy saying "You really look hot in those frames".

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

haha Thanks! I've taken my girlfriend before and we looked but I just couldn't agree on any of the frames. I will have to try again or look next time I go to the eye doctor.

Heh heh, sometimes when we don't agree with what women suggest, well, that's a clue

IMHO, High Index lenses are so much better than polycarbonates. Polycarbonates are very durable and scratch resistent, no doubt, but you sacrifice clarity for it. High Index lenses cost more, but what you get is a more crisp and sharp view.

I have worn both, and the glasses I have now have Super High Index. Had them done in Hong Kong when I went there for vacation during December: Free exam, frames, and super high index lenses for only $80. Now I only use them at night after I take my contacts off.

Why are prices in America so ridiculous?
