I ordered my glasses on the 4th and Fedex dropped it off at noon today.
Came with case and a gift card for another free pair of glasses for a friend which I gave to my mom.

He took two anyway after ignoring the cashier. I started giving him a lecture. He says to me, "What's the problem?" "It's one less donut that could go to someone else. That's the problem", I told him. He still left with two. See, Asians are not the only greedy ones out there. In fact, there were quit a bit of Asians there and none of them took more than one.
Anyway, people do what they do and nobody cares. /lecture | Maybe the Asians took one and then came back and got a second one but no one noticed because ALL LOOK SAME?
Us sneaky ass Asians aren't going to just take one donut!

My glasses just came today. I don't think I should've gotten the standard lenses for my -4.50 prescription though because it's like I'm kind of looking through a fish eye lens. Something straight is now curved.
I did some quick Googling and the lenses seems to be the culprit. That or maybe I measured my PD wrong.

i didn't even need a new pair...just ordered it for the hell of it so didn't feel like paying $60+ for proper lens on a 'back-up' pair.

Anyone know of the long term effects of incorrect pupilary distance? I measured wrong but didn't get the change in time. Not noticing the difference right now as all new glasses feel weird.
