Went to #opticians last week for eye test and checkup, was slightly cursing myself for driving short distance but it was cold and pissing down with rain. Had to fight cursed #UI of parking machine to get my pay and display ticket (took several tries, but I refuse to download yet another app)
Thankfully my distant #eyesight is no worse than 2 years ago (although my #presbyopia has increased slightly to +1,50) - managed to unearth a #vuln in an #OCT scanner as I am very nearsighted - the level of this overflowed the software, optician had to use a different one!
Was shown all the pictures of the inside of my eye/optic nerve etc, all was good there (considering my age and near sight)
Got some #ramen from one of the Asian shops but didn't hang around long in town due to #weather (brr!)

And that's another trip to the Specsavers in Andover done, until I go pick up the new glasses in ~2 weeks.
Once more the staff were lovely, professional and both offered good information and answered any questions I had.
My bank account is wincing, as I've refreshed all *three* pairs; "intermediate vision" for computer work (most of my day), normal varifocals, and another varifocal pair with a polaroid tint for if it's sunny.

This afternoon I'm going into town to get fleeced by the opticians.
I need a new frame for my specs as the current one is at least 2 years old is warped.
Every time I go the optician says I need to get serious about protecting my eyes from UV - so I'm going to get two pairs (probably identical frames) but one with Transitions lenses - which my wife swears by.
Add on the cost of the bifocal lenses and the credit card will be feeling the pain later!At least the Park & Ride bus will only be £1 each return (not free with the OAP bus pass) and we'll get to see the #leicester Christmas Tree.

It's ordering new spectacles time this week, where I decide that every frame does not suit me, even the ones I'm wearing, but at least I'm used to them.

@mythologyandhistory
Wondering if there are means to make magnifying lenses accurately other than by trial and error or with maths?
