Lol, you are one of these people. My flatmate bought Porsche-designed frames for 250 euro and they are exactly the same as regular frames for 1/10 of the price. Nothing unique, they look and feel exactly identical as mine. Why do people waste so much money?
Nice try Reaction

ah, got my new contacts Smile yay.

And now i think what i meant with "limit" on lenses. I thought it was the -2.00 number , but that isn't related to my sight, but to how the contacts are made.

I.e. , if i read it correctly anyway, it says :

BC 8.8
DIA 14.4
POWER -2.00 (Right) and -1.75 (Left)
CYL -1.75x100 (Right) and -1.75x050(Left)

with the right ones being significantly stronger then the left ones.

One thing is for sure, wearing only 1 contact sucked Smile

I'm due for some new contacts myself.

I get the daily use ones, a year supply. I used to get the 2 week use ones but they always end up giving me an eye infection. Not fun...

i got my first contacts like 6 years ago, before that, i pretty much walked through life, only seeing blurs lol. My last glasses i had when i was like 14 or something. So for like 10 years, all i saw was blurs. Luckily, i was able to see good enough what happened on a pc screen (sitting like 15 cm in front of it haha) and even play competitve fps' like cs and quake on a national level Smile , but anything that happens further, is just blurry. And fuck, i remember when i first got the contacts and walked outside the opticians shop and looked at the trees and the streets etc and i was like "oh my gosh, look at all those details !" Smile

Same, had to switch from 2-weeks to daily because of an annoying keratitis, also I find them more comfortable and "soft" if you know what I mean xD

From "360 games look awesome, there's barely no difference with the PC ones, 30fps are perfect with motion blur" to "I can't even play if I don't have steady 60fps, the jaggies ruin games completely..AA should be mandatory!" grinhurt

I have no fucking clue how it happened. I've noticed a crack in the frame yesterday, so I went to a shop and ordered new glasses. 165 € for the frame from Ray Ban and 229 € for the glass (394 €). I'll get my new glasses in about 10 days.
Anyway, today the crack got worse and the left glass fell out of the frame, fucking piece of shit. I'm using my contacts now, because I can't see shit without my glasses Very Happy. -3,75 on both eyes.


Ive had my RayBan glasses since 2001. Since then they have fell countless times, Ive slept on them, sat on them, stepped on them, kneeled on them and still they are somewhat in tact! When I first bought these I had no idea what the hell RayBan was I just thought they looked cool. It turns out that Raybans are extreme durable

last friday night i had some kinda matrix moment.

I was at the local "Fete de musique" (fete of music) and during a grind core concert no less, i got an elbow into my eye (glanced more then anything, so no damage there), but it took the lens right out of my eye.

And while it flew out, i followed it all the way down to the grass (outdoors), like in slow-motion lol (maybe because of the xtc i took earlier haha) and vanish there. Went down with a lighter and couple seconds later i found it, moist it a bit and back into the eye. People around couldn't believe their eyes, that i was able to find it in the middle of the crowd (but everybody saw me and they made a circle around me, while i was on the ground).

Why would you wear such a dirty lens ? Gonna protect your eyes at all cost. Who knows that kind of bacteria might get into that and it might fuck up your eye in process.

I wore safety googles for about a month when I had my Lasik done. Especially on the subway where it's super easy to get something in your eyes before they completely healed.

If you were unlucky, a fox could've taken a piss there in which case you could now take out the lenses and replace them with forks, cause you can't possible do any more damage to your eyes Very Happy
