Update

So I figured out what I don't like about the exam. The part where they ask if 1 is better or 2 is better. And so on. I think we went up to 9 on one eye. That's a long time and I'm thinking, "what if she's wondering how the hell my answers could be right?"

Spent 45 minutes shopping for frames. What did I ultimately pay for? The same pair on my face now.

Dammit.

I didn't like any as much as these and the one pair I picked was metal and I wasn't sure I was up to having the thickest glasses known to man again. So I panicked and grabbed what turned out to be the exact same pair I own. I'm 99% sure they're the same anyway.

I wish they wouldn't have so many racks but have a third be repeats. :/ I hated picking the same ones over and over. Also next time I want blue or aqua somewhere.

You get two month open enrollment? Dang, we get 20 days, give or take. Of course, we don't have to do it in person, just online, so that might help.

I've done the panicky thing on the 1/2 thing before, but this time I knew I wasn't holding anyone up (literally no one else there in the exam portion of the place) so I just told her whenever it was pretty much the same. Mums also used to have issues with that, but this last time told the doc (after god knows how many years) and he said that tells them something else, so that might help for next year? If you really did bork the prescription, can you just get it redone early in 2016?

It's been eons since I went to something other than Eyeglass World, though, so I dunno. This time they at least told me what my limit was so I didn't fall in love with frames more than my insurance would fully cover. Last time it was just a surprise because I didn't even see prices on the individual frames.

I might bitch about a lot of things at work at some point or another, but my vision insurance the last two years has been fantastic. (Might be less so if I wore contacts though.) My lenses are frickin' expensive. :/
