I need new progressive eye glasses as well. Last year when I was in a car wreck, I went to For Eyes because they could have them made in a few days. I got some special where some frames were $99.00 plus the cost of the lenses. I did get some sort of scratch protector coating. This was my first pair of progressives.
I don't know if it is the nature of progressives , bad glasses, or me, but -I have never had comfortable vision with these. It is very hard for me to see edges of stairs, and unless an escalator is marked with yellow and very slow, I can't see where one step begins and anothe ends. I am always taking them off at the computer.
The current glasses arms have plastic over the ears, and they have broken.
I need new glasses, but don't know where to start. I may need a doctor's exam. I may try Lenscrafters. I don't have eye insurance. I get a Kaiser supposed discount at some places.
