I took my Zennis out for a drive. There is fading daylight, but plenty
enough to see. The bifocals I bought for "daily wear" are not strong enough
to read street signs. Each time I'd had to buy new glasses, it was because I
could not read street signs. I'd have to get close, a couple car lengths
from the sign, before it was in focuss. Well, guess what, that's exactly
what these glasses do. Not enough correction for me to read street signs.
Not much benefit for my money.

I have emailed the Zenni service email adress, and will let you know what I
hear. And, I'm going to put my old eye glasses back on.

Makes a person wonder if you were wearing your glasses when you
entered the prescription on the Zenni site...


Don't hold your breath.

Seems their customer service is very hit or miss.

When I get around to it I'll give them a try. It's always a gamble
buying from cut rate places like this, but for $20 or so it isn't the
end of the world if it doesn't pan out.

There's no substitute for a good pair of glasses, though. If they
send the perfect pair, they'll be backups.

I have Oakley's coming from an Ebay seller. I'll have my own shop put
lenses in them. Oakley makes the best frames and optics I've ever
seen. They're damn expensive, but frames on Ebay are fairly priced.

Zenni is fairly priced. I just now ordered 3 sets of eyeglasses for a
$76.95 total. Two pair of stainless steel bifocals and one stainless
steel single vision. (my skin rots temples) Shipping was $4.95 and
the third pair was free. This is my third shipment from Zenni and
there have been two problems. The first was a stripped frame (lens
fell out and the screw wouldn't tighten at all) and they sent a
replacement at no charge. The second I didn't even have them fix.
It's a loose lens in the pair I use on the computer. The lens was
ground just a wee bit too heavily so I can feel it move a little in
the frame when cleaning the lenses. It has never fallen out, so I
ignore it.

The last American eye doctor charged me over $550 for the same setup
with Monel frames.
