Dang, my glasses are tore up so bad they can't be used. I called like 3 optometrists and they all tell me I would need to wait 1-2 weeks for new ones. Is there no option out there to get something temporary to hold me over? I need them to be able to drive and work.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Contacts maybe?

 

[Rockondevil]

Sometimes chemists (drug stores?) sell basic prescriptions which are quite average but if your vision is that bad it can’t hurt to try.

Also it won’t help right now but if you can afford it get two pairs from your optometrist.
Spares can be a lifesaver for any situation, not just glasses.

 

[Ikutachi]

Piece together the glasses with some tape.

Thanks for the laughs guys. After doing research, I am just going to get an eye exam today and the buy them online w/ expedited shipping.

 

[daffyduck]

Two pairs, I hope.

This!

My kid once broke my glasses in the middle. Had to use my sunglasses until I got a new pair. Thank god the glass itself was unharmed so I could just have it fixed into a similar frame. Still got a second pair that I keep inside my car. Just in case I’m on a trip and they brake.

Eat him

The trouble is he needs to be able to see before he can do all that

Maybe your dog want's a new job?

 

[Facism]

Good thing it was only your glasses and not your ass

 

[AJUMP23]

Zenni optical and order a couple pairs if you know your prescription. But they take weeks to show up. But it will be cheaper than the optometrist.

"dog broke my glasses so I can't go to work" is the adult version of "dog ate my schoolwork"

Where the hell do you live?

In Sydney I found Owndays and they will get you new glasses in a couple of hours after getting a test. Other places take weeks. I don't know how they can do it so fast.

I'm new to the glasses world but Specsavers took over 6 weeks to make my sons glasses.

He has a vastly different prescription per eye, but I was surprised how long that took.

Maybe other places would've been faster....

Yah. That's actually what happened to me. I had an eye test done and went to Specsavers to get my current glass changed over and they took over a month. While I was waiting I went to a shopping mall and walked into Owndays, out of curiosity I asked them how long will it take to get my new glasses and they said about an hour. So I got new ones on the spot. But multi focal lenses took them a couple of weeks.

Me quickly reading through threads titles and saw

If you were fitted for contacts, they might be able to give you free samples.

Granted I haven't used Jins in a couple years but last I used them overnight was still an option that cost an arm and a leg. Overnight glasses as well, frames aren't the best looking though but you might find some that fit your style

Maybe I'm misremembering, but weren't you once able to go to a place and get in an hour? Is this just yet another thing we can't do anymore?

That said, Warby Parker is pretty fast, if there is an actual store near you, you can get them pretty quick. I always try to have two pairs of glasses, even if one of them is an old prescription.

Now I am become dog, the destroyer of glasses.
