Ahh… my EYES!
Thursday, April 24th, 2008Not much going on. Today is Amber last day in isolation, and we will able to visit with her today. She has been feeling off and on this whole week, but now that she started back on her normal medication she should be back and kicking at a normal pace soon.
For me it was a pretty good week got to spend lots of time with the kid and my parents. I have been having trouble getting my contact lens prescription filled. About three weeks ago I go a checkup and script for new contacts and glasses. I decided to wait a week, so I didn’t have to take money out of the savings, to purchase my contacts, since I had trial pair. Well wouldn’t you know it, with in 3 days I ripped both lenses, so I put on these jank glasses I broke in Cancun last year. I got online that day and ordered new ones up from VisionDirect. The price was right, and it said on there website that it would only take a few days to process since I faxed them a copy of my script, Tuesday the 8th of April.
Flash forward to 17th of April, contact lenses still still sitting in the processing qu at VisionDirect. So I say ok, my eyes are a little bad maybe they don’t have my lenses in stock, call them up, they tell me processing means they are waiting to fill my order.
With my contact lenses order in limbo at VisionDirect. I decided to try my hand at find cheap but nice glasses to wear around the house. I did the leg work and found a reputable site call Goggles4U. So I measured out my lenses to make sure I got a pair that fit my oval shaped head right and then placed my order. Two days later the 19th of April they shipped not bad for $25.99.
Again flash forward to yesterday the 23rd of April and my contact lenses are still sitting in VisionDirect’s processing limbo, thus I cancel my order never to do business with them again. I place a new order with the ContactLensKing who not only processed my order yesterday but also shipped it out, Amazing! So now I should have my new glasses today or tomorrow and new contacts sometime next week! Finally I will be able to see normally!
