I need glasses....

[tinkerbell23]

Broke mine about 3/4 years ago!! (i know!!)

Never replaced them....but my contacts kill me sometimes especially in summer.

However because im not working just now how do i go about getting glasses? I use specsavers for my lenses...(i pay for them)

Do i need something from the job centre or is it NHS? And any idea how much i get for glasses or towards them?

Badly need them..xxx

[tinkerbell23]

Aye- you are right there!!!

Not that im aware of no?....a discount in nandos i think LOL!!!

I do prefer lenses so just a cheapish pair for watching tv and to wear when im sore is all i need....and prob nightshift....cos the lenses sting like hell when im tired haha! Xx

Haha, better than nothing I suppose! I prefer wearing my contacts but when I'm rushing to school in the morning glasses are just quicker to put on, and if I started bothering with contacts now the children would all look at me strange for not having my glasses on. Also handy for when I managed to pick up conjuctivitis off the little lovelies!

[tinkerbell23]

Sorry to read about your specs problem ,sincerely hope you get them fixed before you start working as a nurse.

Pop into specsavers, they are doing some great deals, especially for those using contacts.

My frames are NHS ones and I love them. They do some really nice ones now....looking pretty much the same as the 'designer' ones!

[ummmm]

I agree with divegirl, all 3 of my kids wore NHS glasses. They are just as stylish.
