New glasses, part two

At long last, I’m using 100 percent new glasses, instead of squinting when not wearing sunglasses while I wait for these to arrive.

OUT WITH THE OLD:

My old glasses are a pair of “ESQ by” something that starts with an R, but is just a squiggle. Google is no help, so it’ll have to remain a mystery. They were from a swanky glasses shop in Studio City a few years ago, but for all that they looked good initially, the tips of the stems both snapped off and the anti-scratch coating apparently came with a warranty that, when it expired, all bets were off.

IN WITH THE NEW:

The new frames are from Sergio Tacchini and are my first foray into truly rimless frames. We’ll see how it goes. Unlike the sunglasses, with their curved lenses, these took the new prescription in earnest and my vision is sharper than it’s been in ages. I feel like Superman, other than finding Lois Lane really annoying and not at all attractive.
