I just bought new glasses! I have some questions

[Debi]

They're like these but red.

My questions:

Do you worry if your eye doctor wears glasses?
Do you worry if you have bad breath when you're with the eye doctor?

Are red glasses weird????

[Book Lover]

1. You only want to go to an eye doc who wears glasses

How else will s/he know what you're talking about when you complain about how your hair gets caught in the frames? :-) And for red glasses: yes, you are very wierd. Very. Go conform and get the black ones!

[Debi]

4. I just can't

I have reddish-brown hair and the black were too severe - I almost got celery green but they dissapeared on my face. I really really really really really like the red....:bounce:

[Book Lover]

9. I bet they're totally cute in red

Myself, I need to wear light colors; my sight is pretty poor, so my lenses are pretty thick, and so my frames need to be wire or otherwise very thin.

[Debi]

11. I figure if they are too 'out there' I can replace them in a few months

As long as I find frames that fit the lenses I only have to pay for the frames. (and since they are rectangle lenses it should not be too hard to find frames). Right now I'm just being a red rebel!!! ( I looked at the plastic frames, but I'm so hard on glasses I had to go w/the titanium. I'm sure I'll be getting the underwire re-strung several times a year!)

[Pithlet]

22. Oh, I hate that.

I love the look of the frames I have now, but my hair always gets caught on the left arm where it hinges, when I take them off.

2. Would you go to a dentist with teeth?

:shrug:

Red = :thumbsup:

[Debi]

5. Hah hah!

Gotcha! He seemed nice enough - and didn't bump into things, so his prescription must've been okay!

[Left Is Write]

3. No and no.

Why would you worry about your eye doctor wearing glasses?

[Debi]

6. Well, can he see my vision problems if he has vision problems himself

But the more I think about it - if he has corrective eyewear then he must be doing it right?!?!

I chewed gum just in case - he didn't have bad breath :7

[skygazer]

7. No , no and no

I do, however, worry that the eye doctor will have bad breath. Or the dentist - why is it that so many dentists have bad breath? And you're trapped in the damn chair with their face right in yours. No escape. :scared:

[Debi]

8. The eye doctor did that little light-thing in my eye and would hold

his breath and then move away from me to exhale and take another breath. I thought that was really polite. :7

He didn't have bad breath. :7

10. Red glasses rock!

Bailey... :loveya:

[Debi]

12. Bailey was HOT!!!

Now I know I made the right decision!!!

[Oeditpus Rex]

15. I had a massive crush on her

Still do, really.

If it came to a choice between her and Janeane, my head would probably explode.

:nuke:

[merh]

13. No, you worry if your dentist has bad breath

and if your eye doctor has conjunctivitis

Red glasses are great. :thumbsup:

[Debi]

16. They're universal....what was I worried about?

[merh]

20. Exactly!

:thumbsup:

But seriously, after viewing the images you provided, if you have blue skin, I would rethink the red glasses. That is a bit much color for the face.

[Debi]

23. Thanks, I have reddish-brown hair and 'neutral' skin w/brown-hazel eyes

I can wear blues/reds/yellows - I can wear silver or gold - I'm very - very lucky in the pallet I can select from. Red does look warmer on my face than the black did and the lighter (I tried celery green) just disappeared on my face.

I did notice, though, that I had to pluck my eyebrows - more attention drawn to my eyes w/red glasses :blush:

14. you put the hook things over your ears.

Hook side down.



































:hide:

[Debi]

17. Oh, thank you, I was so confused......

You are walking a fine line Tex......

[texas1928]

18. WHO ME?!?!

:D



That is why I was hiding.

[Debi]

19. Yeah, yeah, yeah

but thanks for the advice all the same.



Don't want to look silly!

[sbj405]

21. Sally? Sally Jesse, is that you?

:P


just kidding, I'm sure you look great in the red specs.

[Debi]

24. Could I get my own talk show?

I'd have DUers on to 'air' their grievances. Wonder if Steve is available from the Jerry Springer Show?????

[sbj405]

27. If he's not, I'm sure there's someone from the lounge that could keep

everyone in order.

[Debi]

28. But he's sooooo tough

I don't know if anyone can compare!

[sbj405]

31. This guy

:-)

[Debi]

32. Hey, I PMd him and he said he'd do it....now to find a network that

will carry my show....Hmmmmmm...will Al Gore trust me?????

[proud patriot]

25. red glasses are cool

:-), I actually prefer my eye doctor to be familiar
w/ glasses . Wearing them is a good way to know
they've been on the other side as a patient with
an eye doctor .

[Debi]

29. Good point

Kind of like a Commander in Chief who starts a war and yet has never served in the military :shrug: but alas, I digress

[Pithlet]

26. No, yes, no.

I love the frames.

[Debi]

30. Thanks

:hi:

[Beware the Beast Man]

33. I went to an optometrist who had the worst breath ever.

That was the first and last time. :puke:

[Debi]

34. See????!!!!

It does happen! :bounce: I'm glad it didn't happen to me. x( sorry about your experience.

[riona]

35. i've got the same ones

i worry because i spent too much money on them and i want to go back to tortoiseshell

[Debi]

36. The celery green ones were $75.00 more - so I'm not too upset

about these. You know you can purchase the frames on discount sites and bring them in to have lenses placed in them. That might cut the costs. :shrug:

[riona]

37. good idea, thanks
