    some days I just can't keep a straight face...

    Today a very nice repeat patient stopped in the office and asked: "I know this is a silly question (oh no...) BUT is there such a thing as a frame that breathes with your head...moves when you do?". Oh lordy...almost had to dive under the desk...thank goodness my vacation starts tomorrow afternoon

    Lately, this one makes me laugh:
    us: Do you wear glasses?
    them: No, just for reading.

    Oh. You wear those new pretend reading glasses?

    I still think my favorite is when I was in the Navy on the east coast, and was asked all the time "Do I need more medicine added to my lenses". Lol so hard not to laugh ;)

    A guy came in this weekend griping about the scratched up lenses we sold him and how much better the ones he was wearing were. Turns out we sold him the ones he was wearing and he got the scratchables somewhere else. Hard not to laugh at him.
