Get your eyes examined and ask for the prescription.  Glasses from places that do both exams and glasses can cost anywhere from $200-$600 depending on the lenses.  Take your prescription over to a BJs (the outlet stores that sell mega-sized items)  They have eyewear departments that offer a great selection of frames and can usually make your glasses for 1/3 what Empire, Pearle, Lenscrafter, etc. would charge you.  You can bring old frames in, and they'll make and install your new lenses for a fraction of the cost.

I would contact the eyeglass corporations in the US.\nMaybe the association for the blind.

The University of Houston's University Eye Institute has very good prices on complete eye exams, glasses, and contacts.  They also have people to talk to if you can't afford the full price.  Call them at 713-743-2020 for more info.

Here's a question for ya: why is it that every time I buy a pair of somewhat expensive sunglasses, I loose them. But if I buy a cheapo pair (like the ones I bought at K-mart that were marked down to $1.50), I can't lose them?

Store-bought reading glasses (also called "readers" or "half glasses") can provide an immediate and inexpensive solution, but eye care specialists may not recommend them for several reasons: \n\nBlurred vision cannot always be traced to presbyopia and could signal a more serious eye-health problem, so it's best to get a thorough examination from an eye care professional to rule out other causes. \n\nMost people need a different prescription for each eye, but both lenses are the same in store-bought reading glasses.\n\nThe optical center of off-the-rack reading glasses may not correspond to the distance between your eyes.\n\nStore-bought reading glasses do not correct for astigmatism, a common vision problem.

How long ago did you get them? Some places have a return policy if you change your mind in a certain amount of time. \n\nI have glasses and I recommend anyone getting them for the first time try to find a place that will give you a deal like that. \n\nI have had mine a while. I get the thinner newer frames and kind of small frames. They look better on me. It does take you a while to find what you like. But I did. \n\nHave you thought of contacs. I could not wear them though. So get trial ones if you try them. An eye doctor will charge more to get the contac RX but usually will give you a free trial pair. \n\nI have found the best and cheapest glasses at Walmart. But mine are still like over $200, under $300. But I am picky and wear mine for several years. My eyes have stopped getting worse. \n\nI have astigmatism. But a really weird thing happened like the year before last. My near sighted problems got 5 times better!!! The eye doctor said it is rare but happens. Same place I have went to for ages. I went in thinking my eyes were worse, I had worse headaches and I had to keep taking my glasses off that I had a long time. And was in shock when the eye doctor told me that!!!\n\nGood luck!!! BTW my husband still finds me hot, lol.

I'd suggest getting the right prescription for your eyes regardless of cost..  If you don't, you won't be able to see clearly, and will also lead to headaches...\n\nTake it from someone who has bad astigmatism. ;)

It all depends on the doctor that you go to.  They all pretty much set their own prices.  Call your ophthalmologist and ask.

Those should be fairly thick- unless there is some kind of special thin lense-my old glasses were a -6.00 and plastic-and fairly thick= D

http://39dollarglasses.com\n\nseriously, it sounds too good to be true, but I've gotten glasses from them and they're great. They have many styles and they really are only $39! They have a feature in which you can choose your face shape and you can try them out on a 'virtual person'. :D

About $115.00, but this would include glaucoma testing,dialated retinal exam and refraction. Your exam should take at least 45 minutes. Save up the $ and get your eye exam from a good Dr. that someone who you respect has referred you to. Your eyes will thank you.

Around WI, they can cost anywhere from $150-$400.  Not the same area, but at least you have a starting point.  One other thing:  Always be careful when buying something from a relative, sometimes it's not a good idea, because if there is a problem with it, the possibility for hard feelings exsist.  Just a friendly pointer.

They usually range between $50 and $80, depending on what you get.  They're wonderful!  Enjoy!
