...And where I get my glasses, they charge almost DOUBLE for glass lenses.

ONLY double???

The place I went for mine wanted nearly triple the price of
polycarbonate, then an extra $70 on top of it for a "scratch-guard"
coating, *PLUS* an extra week and $40 for what they called a "drop test"
(involving some sort of "calibrated" ball bearing being dropped on each
lens from some specific height after it was completed, which they
claimed was FDA-mandated for all glass lenses) that had no guarantees of
not smashing the lenses and having to start over from sratch.

They got told to keep the glass, much as I hate the damn scratch-happy
plastic lenses.


....Chuckle.... well, Don, I spoke for when this took place... at LEAST a
dozen years, or more, ago. It may well have been 3X the poly price, but
I do remember it was just out of the question at the time.... and now.
SBT....
