I never knew how bad my vision had to be to drive without glasses! Now I have to keep my glasses up to date so I wanted to share with you 7 reasons why glasses should be bought online!
Driving Without Glasses – EXPIRED
Just the other day, I glanced at my drivers license and realized that it had been expired for 2 months! Good thing I car pool to save money! What is shocking is that I had recently traveled using my license and good thing TSA didn’t stop me. I don’t know what I would have done. I had actually traveled on an expired license to New York and Miami!
So I ended up going to the DMV on a Saturday and when I went to take license I tried to place my glasses in my purse so that I can pass the test without having to wear my glasses. I have NEVER had to wear my glasses when driving and even when I went to the eye doctor last she said my vision wasn’t bad at all! Guess what happened, I looked through their eye test machine and I couldn’t see one letter. Finally the gentleman asked me to try with my glasses and I didn’t have a problem. I was totally bummed that now if I forget or misplace my glasses, I have to drive with them. I was told next time I am at the eye doctor they can change my request if they feel I am okay to drive without them. According to Vision Impact Institute research 75% of people in the US have vision correction (most of them use glasses) see link: http://news.essilorusa.com/stories/detail/vision-impact-institute-releases-study-on-corrective-lens-wearers-in-the-u

As a glasses wearer, I often get my new frames from my opticians. I never even considered buying online but will definitely look into it now.
