So i had my eyes checked on Tuesday 30th July. My eye sight has changed and i needed 3 new pair of glasses.
One pair for Reading, one pair for using the PC and watching TV and one pair for Driving.
I went and picked them up last Tuesday 6th August.
I Said to the wife that the reading glasses were good and the driving glasses were also good.
But i said I see the PC and TV better with my old glasses.
So this morning first thing i popped into town to see what was wrong with them.
Whoever made up my prescription , made 2 pairs of driving glasses. So i now have to wait till next week for the right ones.

I hate wearing glasses on the bike so I wear one-day disposable contacts, but I do have a set of driving glasses as you need to carry them as spares in France, Spain and Switzerland.

I only need them for reading. I get a free test, ask for the prescription and buy the right pair from pound land. Been doing it for years. Once I had the lens checked and they were spot on.

Same but found The Range do nice range at about £12 each. Also I use Nooz originals https://www.nooz-optics.com/en-gb Expensive but fit in pocket unobtrusively for work and drinking. But also very handy on bike as sit on nose with no arms so dont need to take helmet off.

£1 one do me as am always forgetting where I leave them or sit on them
