New Glasses Day

It is the time again to have the kids' eyesight check. I get so nervous at these times. Not only bcos I hate spending $$ to change their glasses, I am more worried about their eyesight deteriorating. 

Nevertheless, I was prepared to change Zaky's glasses. It is not that I am OK for his eyesight to worsen but his lenses had been 2 years long with multiple scratches bcos he doesn't take care of them. Zzzzz. He had broken and changed multiple frames and the optical shop had given us free exchanges bcos they wanted us to remain loyal plus mummy made enough noises. Hoho.

The last check was in October 2021. Lil Shauna had her glasses last changed in April 2021 bcos her bad eye just refused to be tamed. Zaky's eyesight had been controlled since we changed the kids to Hoya lenses in February 2020. 

The verdict? I like Hoya. Hoho. Their degrees are both controlled. Yay!

Zaky still got to change his glasses bcos they are so scratched. The lenses are already scratched the last round we went for eye checked but I refused to spend the $$. He now complained that he cannot see clearly. The glasses are also getting more expensive. 2 years back, it was $360 per pair. It was $400 when we changed Lil Shauna's glasses in April 21. This time, it is $500! Luckily, I can claimed $400 from the Company's insurance. 
I am hoping this investment will last him for the next 2 years. As for his old glasses, we are keeping them for his aggro skating sessions.
