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!

These were younger Asians. If they were older ones, the place would have been cleaned out within five minutes of opening.

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'll let you know how mine turn out
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.
