    Default Where do you get your non-prescription glasses

    Where do you get your readers/cheaters? I have an abundance of Amazon/drug store glasses but as I need them more and more often every day I want to get a few pair of nicer but not crazy expensive readers. Share your favorites- TIA

    My favorite are Eyebobs. Peepers came out with super cute styles so I bought several pairs. The most bizarre thing happened - I’m allergic to them! I had this weird rash on my nose and it wouldn’t go away. It finally went away when I stopped wearing Peepers.

    Caddis are my favorites by far (and I have a silly number of various brands including Eyebobs, Peepers , Izipizi, drugstore, etc). I always get compliments and the blue light blocking is really soothing to my eyes.

    I really like Peepers. I usually buy many pairs of fun readers (car, work, home) and their price is right. The Caddis brand is pricey for readers, wow!

    I just get them from my eye doctor. I work from home and I sit in front of a computer all day and I have noticed in the last 3.5 years since working from home and the fact that I turned 46 this year that I am wearing my readers almost all day, and now including while using my phone, and or an iPad. I then get reimbursed through my HSA. I am all about comfort as well since I tend to wear them all day. With discounts and insurance coverage of $200 per frame my glasses don’t usually cost no more than $100 max after adding in blue light reflective lenses and progressive lenses (so I don’t have to take my glasses off every time I get up).

    I bought Peepers locally, they are really cute and mine came with the most adorable rainbow case. Love the blue light blockers. I get my regular glasses at Costco or Zenni.
