Billard Eye Glasses

I've been using Costco for eye doc and eyeglasses for years. I chose a pair that was a little oversized and tall enough, had the focal point raised up a little like when bending over to shoot. They are progressive lenses and work great. Cost under $300 . I do notice when I forget to put them on.
👍For a while I was getting Ray Ban shooting glasses and using the frames with Rx lens.

Just got back into pool after about a decade hiatus. In that time my eyesight isn't the same and realized after the first 10 minutes I wouldn't enjoy this game if I didn't find a solution.

I looked at contacts and the cost, upkeep and hassle wasnt worth it to me. I only wear glasses driving and watching tv. Which i could do without if needed. But shooting on a 8x4 i couldnt see the object ball clearly if it was more than 2-3 feet away. When I was wearing my glasses, over my cue my eyeline was looking over the top of my glasses. I couldn't shove them up into my face any more and I was still looking over them.

Did a Google search as I've seen snooker players wearing glasses during play. Found a website called Billard Glasses .com.

Sent a text and Gordon simply said call me. Which I did. He's a retired optician living in Montreal. Has been doing these for a long time and carried on as a hobby in retirement. Very easy to deal with. Sent my RX and PD. Week and a bit later, they're in my mailbox.

Work great. Exactly what they're designed to do.

What a stud I am hahaha.
