The Advantages Of Same-Day Glasses At Your Optometrist's Office
Finding out you need new glasses can be kind of a letdown. However, getting your glasses prescription filled right in your optometrist's office and picking them up the same day as your appointment may be the silver lining you need to get going on this necessary task. Here are some advantages of same-day glasses prescription filled at your optometrist's office.
You Will Have Less Headaches and Eye Strain to Endure
Many people who find out that they need glasses suffer eye strain and headaches until they go to their optometrists for vision correction. Unfortunately, they continue to suffer these symptoms until their glasses are made and are ready to be picked up. That could equal a week or more with some optometrists, since they would have to send you out to an optician's office to have the prescription filled, and then it is up to the optician to make the glasses. If you have other things going on in your life (and who does not), then it could take even longer to get your glasses, which translates into that much longer that you would have to live with eye strain and headache pain on a regular basis.
You Will Be Able to See More Clearly Sooner
Sometimes when you do not see as clearly as you once had, you tend to adapt to what you can and do see. It could be very blurry, but you have "made do" and stumbled along. Getting glasses on the same day that your optometrist tells you that you need them allows you to see clearer sooner, and it is really an eye opener to how you have been functioning (but not really functioning) all this time. Being able to clearly see can greatly enhance your quality of life.
You Will Be Able to Put a Stop to Your Accidents Right Away
If you have been experiencing a lot of stumbling, misstepping, tripping, falling, walking into things, and even driving into things or driving too close, these accidents stop now. Within a few short hours of having your eyes checked and turning in your prescription to be filled, the accident-prone part of your life stops. What is more, any medical expenses, insurance expenses, and/or auto accident expenses incurred from not seeing very well stop now too. Glasses remove the possibility that you will accidentally hurt yourself or others and incur several related bills. That alone is worth the trip to the optometrist to fix your eyes.
