Hey, Four-Eyes!

For as long as I can remember, my eyesight has been less-than perfect.  There's a big bright world to see out there, and I felt like I was missing out.

Even though I wore them earlier in life to be fashionable, it wasn't until I was 11 that I finally had my first pair of prescription eyeglasses.  The worst part of the entire experience?  The shopping.

I remember looking at dozens of frames.  Picking out a lens tint.  Matching the frames to my face.  Rejection after rejection.

To this day, I'm still picky about what my glasses look like on me.  When I finally find a look I like, it's hard to switch.

Well, I'm about 3 years overdue for my eye exam.

Now that I finally have insurance again, I'm a few weeks away from getting a new eyeglasses prescription.  The decision looms before me... do I get updated lenses, or do I change my overall look again?

I'm thinking it's time for a new me.

Since they're on me all the time, I really do believe that the specs make the man.  As much as I enjoy my current frames, I'm tempted to look for something a little lower-maintenance, while being able to handle my on-the-go lifestyle.  And what better way to browse than looking for glasses online?

I'm a Business 2 Blogger member, and recently saw a job request from GlassesUSA.com.  I jumped at the chance to review their site, because I myself am in the market.  What better way to get a new sponsor than to potentially be a new customer?

And odds are I'll be buying at their website.  Their selection is fantastic, and I'm very impressed with their "Virtual Mirror" tool.  The biggest problem I have with frames is matching them to my face, but GlassesUSA overcomes that obstacle.

So there you go.  Stay tuned for a new Brandon in the weeks to come.  When I get them, I'll definitely want to show them off, and if I buy online, I'll be letting you know how that process went.
