I got new eyeglasses yesterday. Everything looks crisp and clear with my
new prescription. ๐ Anyway... I decided to go with a pair that is more bold
than my usual choice. You can't tell in the picture, but they are kind of
maroon/wine colored. What do you think?

Thank you! ๐
My husband said they make me look like a librarian. I didn't see that at
all until he pointed it out. However, he thinks librarians are very sexy,
so coming from him I'm taking it as a compliment.Spring

shape. The new ones look much better. They draw attention to your eyes and
allow more view of your eyebrows which gives you more expression.Side Note: Since people are reading this let me pop a general note in.
Anyone who has bifocals and uses a computer alot MUST talk to their
optometrist about getting computer glasses. Or at LEAST get a cheap ugly
pair with just the lower lens as a full prescription (referred to as
reading glasses). It moved me from 2 hours a day before I lost interest for
unknown reasons, to be able to spend all day again on the computer (yeah I
know thats not necessarily a good thing)Gandalf Parker

distance for computing. Bottom for reading. Top for closely examining
details on the lunar surface.Really. Except for that last part.

My bifocals aren't good for the computer as I have to bend my neck up too
far. I agree on computer or reading glasses for the computer.In news:[email hidden],

I meant to type trifocals. I have had tris for years. Still too much head
tilting and you have to get them positioned just right.In news:[email hidden],

It's so much easier to use comfortable glasses. I mostly use my laptop now
and vary my position, the reading glasses make the whole computer screen
easily visible from any angle. I also wear reading glasses when reading the
newspaper as I find the trifocals uncomfortable for that. I am adapting the
hardware, i.e., glasses.In news:[email hidden],

Looks good. For an even more drastic change try contact lenses
(especially tint enhancers), could really open up your face.
People wont even recognize you!!frank (optometrist)

Did you see my picture?
I'm already a DDD and quite perky on my own... I don't think I need any help
in that area, but who knows, I could be mistaken.--
