Yep. I go to Costco now because I’m blind in one eye so the correction is only for the other eye. Costco only charges me 50% of the normal lens cost and the blind eye just gets a balance lens (weight matched to the other without correction).
I’ve walked out with a brand new pair of lenses and frames for $30 after my eye “insurance”.
FYI, Ray Ban is just a brand name owned by the same company that owns most well known glasses brands.
Once you realize how consolidated the eyeglass industry is its a lot harder to find truly independent brands.
I not only have to pay to see, but I have also to pay huge markups for it??? Fucking hell.
It was always weird to me how expensive glasses and lenses were, now I’m just pissed at being right.

Noooo! Well, I tried. I can’t remember which I got, but not a brand I recognized. I’ll have to look them up
Anyone reading this there is still value in undermining the investment the conglomerate made in purchasing raybans.
