So you think I am healthier going three months without corrective lens than selling me another pair of what I would still be wearing anyway if they weren't scratched?
Health care in America!
And what's cleven crazier is that eye prescription lasts one year, but health insurance pays for one exam every two years. I have "Cadillac" insurance.
So if Grandma loses her glasses after 13 months she cannot buy another pair. It's unhealthy.
Bottom line: any online places that will just let me type in my prescription? I wanted to get Roka but they aren't ok with that.
You have a PDF version of that prescription? Easy enough to edit the expiration date by 1 year. I'm not saying I've done it, and I'm not recommending you do it, but I've had the issue in the past with >4 months lead time to get an appointment and needed a temporary contact refill. Apparently nobody who works for opticontact.com is calling the provider to verify the script so...
