Reading Glasses
Sunday, February 24th, 2008 | 28 Comments 
At 1:00 I have my 3rd follow-up at the eye doctor. After spending this past week testing my sight with a new prescription, toric lenses, old prescription and other variations… I’ve decided just getting reading glasses (to wear with my old contact prescription) would be the best choice. I just have issues with my astigmatism bothering me when I’m on the computer at work. So this is the best choice since the toric contacts were impossibly uncomfortable and the new prescription strength gave me headaches. I’ll only need to use them when on the computer \
/ so I wanted to get some fun frames. Especially since these lenses will be way cheaper than my full prescription lenses. Also I won’t be “stuck” in them all day, like my actual glasses, so I want something bright and trendy.
These are my current glasses (full prescription.) I like them a lot. Great frame for constant wear…
Ideas for new reading glasses. I’ll wear with my daily contacts and only use when on the computer and such~

Those are beautiful frames. We could only dream of carrying those where I used to work. I also think that’s a good idea if you want to mainly wear contacts. That’s the opposite of me though, I love glasses and don’t like contacts.
I love the idea of colorful frames. The pink D&G frames are awesome. Or the red Vogue ones, or the purples.. so many fun choices ^__^
o0o0o~ they are so pretty. I especially like the pink + green ones. and the red D&G ones ^^ good luck with finding a good pair~
i was really upset when i couldn’t wear my contacts anymore.. but i’m pretty used to wearing my glasses. they have so many to pick from. it has become such a fashion item! D&G always has a lovely collection…
The 1st and 3rd are my favourites. I’m not a label whore, I swear! They’re just super pretty.
Wow, some really colorful frames there. Hmm, I really like the 4th one. Nice and simple.
I really like the pink (3) and the white (1) one. Thicker frames are nicer IMO.
i really like all of theseeee *wears them to be trendyz
the 4th one looks awesome
Waa - I too am looking for a spiffy new pair of frames (I’ve got to take advantage of my Health Care benefits before I loose my “student” status ;p) Hahhaa - I love the D & G selection! I’m a big fan, but I’ve been delving into the “Levis” collection lately (whoo limited edition!)
:3
Have fun with the glasses choosing! I love just wandering about and picking up the most colourful pair
RED FRAMES
i wanna say anything by D&G
but they have some realy crazy stuff
haha
REDREDREDRED
wow your current perscription glasses are really similar to mine!! xDDD
i loooooooove the D&G frames!!
i suggest getting either the first silvery one or the 3rd purply one. i’m sure you’d look great it all of them though~~
I really like the third D&G ones!
I love the 3rd one!!
i am in love with red frames. but the pink looks absolutely adorable too :3
I love the 3rd frames! D&G frames are so pretty but they don’t suit me :( Contacts can be so annoying! So yay for new frames!
Woahh that’s a smart solution
*tee-hee* I love that you want some funky glasses! I only have backup glasses with my normal prescription they are pretty ‘normal’ 
h. Goodluck with picking out a new frame, sometimes it can be hard to find that perfect one - but I’m sure you will find one you like! xoxo
all those frames look so spunky!
i haven’t changed my glasses for like 4+ years! i want new frames but my optom doesn’t provide a very wide range.
yay for options and not having to be stuck w/glasses!
my friend has the pink D&G one and i just love it when she wears it cuz it look sophisticated and pretty
oh btw i have ‘anna sui’ ones ahahaha
Oh! Yay for more accessories! Personally, I like the first D&G ones :3

AHHH JEN!!! YOU FOUND MY FAVOURITE GLASSES! I LOVE THAT 3RD D&G ONE!!!
That pink is so nice~
Please get those so I can look at you and admire your beautiful glasses
I tried those on before but alas~ it looked weird on me D:
*puts 1 vote for 3rd!*
i love the second pair! the red ones - so pretty.
i’ve just been glasses-shopping with my sister. we were there for ages picking them but it was quite fun. she says she has to take me cos i’m the only one who’ll say which frames suit her face
i’m going for my test in a couple of weeks. i should be okay but i might need glasses for reading cos i have one bordering-on-bad eye. i wanted funky reading glasses - they have such beautiful frames out at the moment, don’t they?
Wow, really like the Dolce and Gabbana? Anyway, I like the red ones you have in the middle there… I think the pink ones are too 1960’s-cat-eye-ish.
I used to wear glasses full-time, and they looked exactly like the ones you have right now. Right now, I’m using toric lenses but only when I go out and at home (or for more casual/mundane events) I have a pair of really funky red thick-framed glasses. Red works really well especially if you have brown hair.
So if you’re just wearing reading glasses does that mean you’re also wearing contacts on top of that or not? I’d like to do that but my astigmatism is so bad, toric lenses are the only ones that will fit me…
Yes Timmie, I’ll be wearing these reading glasses on top of my daily wear contacts! The toric lenses weren’t turning out to be a good solution for me and since my astigmatism only bothers me when reading/on the computer the doctor said this would be a fine solution.
Gahh late reply but red frames are love!!
