A Gift For Vision Improvement

Shipping of the Christmas presents for my family in the Philippines is delayed.  The previous months were very occupied because of special events.  There are Holiday outfits for my niece and nephews in the package.  I bought some clothing for my brother and sisters too.  In addition, my parents love lotions and fragrances.  So I included a couple in the box also.

I remember my parents requested something from me.  Something that they can use all the time-prescription eyeglasses.  Both my parents have vision problems.  It has been my concern when I was home.  We did not have the money for eye check-ups that time.  So they just bought a pair of eyeglasses and they borrow from each other.  So pitiful.  Now I can definitely buy them cheap eyeglasses but with the same quality that can be found in designers'.  It is a good time to shop for prescription eyeglasses this holiday because there are many stylish frames to choose from.  Because these are very affordable, I can still buy a nice shirt for my father and a pretty casual dress for my mother.  I chose this frame because it looks simple but classy.  My mother would really like it.  Hopefully I can send the package early next year so my family will be happier.

How about you?  Is somebody in your family have vision problems?  What frames would you like to buy for them as gifts?  Feel free to share here.

Clearer Vision


Before the new year started my honey and I were talking about scheduling him for an eye check-up. But for insurance concerns, we decided to have his eyes checked this year. He really needs to do this because both of us noticed his vision is not well. The eyeglasses he is wearing right now is a couple of years old. They need to be replaced as soon as possible.


We are getting recommendations from the people close to us. One of them is our Filipino friend who got a pair of prescription eyeglasses from Zenni Optical, direct seller of quality prescription eyeglasses. They have been providing the public the durable, cheap frames and lenses. The New York Times has stated its opinion to prove that for as low as $8.00, we can get huge savings on generic frames (including lenses) from Zenni Optical. Where can you find a bargain like this? Unbelievable huh? Some stores sell these for a hundred bucks or more a pair.

I want my honey to improve his vision. I feel bad when he is having a hard time looking at or reading something. He needs my help. He needs to get a new pair of eyeglasses. Actually I am starting to look for an ophthalmologist who is networked with our insurance provider.
