As soon as I needed glasses for reading when all I did in my youth came back to haunt me I went to a very good Optometrist who not only checks your eye health but can advise you on the best glasses that suit you. I actually got two sets of glasses one for reading and the other for viewing a computer screen at a far greater distance than reading distance.

He at first said it can't be done. I assured it him it could. He worked it out and now lots of his customers have the same needs and they are easily met. He thanked me for bringing the problem to his attention. He now offers this as a service!

Both sets worked very well for what they were intended. It is the Titanium frames that come at a premium. Titanium frames are far better.

I would not be a bit surprised if the Optometrist does not get the lions share of the 'profits'.

We all have to eat!
