Va Eye Appointment Today

[jbasser]

I went to the Eye doc at the Loal VA today and I have not been able to see very good most of the day. ANyway I had the best treatment from an eye doc.

She looked at my SC issues and since I suffer from Migraines, She ordered the prescription with transition lenses. The first time I have ever heard of them doing that.

Oh well. We can get on them when they are bad, but we should praise them when they do good and go over and above.

j,

Was there an additional charge on your end for the transition lenses ?

Not to be negative - BUT you know me, if your migraines are exacerbated by the sunlight

then the transition lenses will give you a bit of relief when you are outside,

but they will not provide much relief if you are inside of a vehicle.

The actual RX also has a bit to do with how dark they will get.

I continue to highly recommend RX sunglasses for everyone that is light sensitive

for whatever reason's.

If the DOc prescribes it and it is related to a medical condition then thereis no charge.
