I was paying over $700 a year for glasses. Funny how the cost always seemed to add up to the max annual amount that my Vision program covered. Since my prescription basically stopped changing five years ago, I determined my IPD (pretty easy with a ruler and a mirror) and now I just order from online glasses providers, for about $100 a pair. No issues at all. It's still important to see an eye doctor every year or two so that medical issues can be spotted early. But it's stupid to pay crazy prices for what should be a commodity.
