I have been having problems with my pair of glasses as the screws tend to get lose all the time. I have been changing my glasses almost every year though last year I decided to use my old frame as it cost me RM500 when I bought it 5 years ago and I only used it for a while. I changed the lenses as my degree has increased a little. Practically it is new.
.
Initially I don’t intend to change it this year as I thought I’ll just bear with it for another few months before getting a new pair. Then suddenly I remembered I still have some contact lenses balance from a few years back and thought I should not waste them but but but… waste them I did as the degree no longer fits me!
.
I was telling the hubby I should start wearing contact lenses again (after 4 long years!) as I won’t have to deal with sliding down glasses which can be a hassle at times! And vanity got the better of me…

Hubby said why not I get some Toric lenses since both my eyes are suffering from astigmatism. I got my eyes checked again and found out that one of my eyes astigmatism has dropped but still can’t use the balance lenses I have which is non Toric.
.
I used to live with it last time and that was why I see blur images but when you’re vain you don’t care much! The normal contact lenses are much cheaper of course and putting on for long term can save a lot. Silly me to think that way! I could have spoil my eyes further for being thrifty!
.
Anyway, I made some inquiries and found out that normal lenses cost RM55 a box of 3 pairs (have to get 2 boxes since both my eyes have different degrees). These Toric lenses cost RM240 for 6 pairs (half year supply).
.
The shop I got from is giving another pair free as trial pair. I’m not complaining though…
.
With contact lenses now, I can finally put on eye shadow and mascara…. *bleh~*
