Smart idea to get rechargeable batteries. I didn’t know they had those. I hear the batteries are terribly expensive so you probably saved yourself some money either. You’re right, it is expensive to see in here. My glasses I’ve always been about $1000 each. Can’t wait to have cataract surgery in two months, then the cost of my glasses goes down! And hopefully I’ll see well enough to actually find my glasses lol!

Now if my posts are not making any sense it could be the dictation system or it could be my eyes. My ghosting is so bad that all of the letters are doubled. I don’t know if I’ll make it two months, half probably end up being grounded for a while, I have fast growing cataract

They gave me a new script for glasses after my 3rd eye surgery. The glasses were over $1,300 each pair without new frames (my old ones were 6 or so months old and they reused them which surprised me), but that’s fine I can see now. You will probably need special sunglasses also like me in addition to regular trifocal glasses.

The dang state still has not removed the medical hold on my DL from last June. When I called last week they said another few weeks and you will be cleared, so figure 8 weeks minimum to clear it up if your doctor turns you in. I’m not approved for night driving, just day driving that seems to be part of the hold up.
