Princeton, this is my very first pair. I bought some el cheapos because...well, the deal was good, I couldn't afford the pair I'd really like right now, and this will let me get used to glasses: both the wearing of them and the taking care of them.
I don't even hold onto sunglasses well (I always buy REALLY cheap ones because of this) and I didn't want to go buy a hot pair of glasses and lose them or break them a week later.
Why are you getting them, P? I was getting more and more near-sighted. I would actually fail the driving test by one line. The doctor said this is typical in people who do work on the computer like I do. I went from 20/20 vision when I came to NYC to whatever this is in the span of a few years because my eyes have stopped being able to adjust when they try to focus at a distance.
I will say that walking around NYC last night after I got them was a new experience...so clear!

oh, and they make me look cute.
