How would you feel, as a recent purchaser of $500 worth of glasses, ready to see how fab you look, and maybe if you can see too. The function is important, but come on, it's new glasses and you want to check yourself out. You sit at a nice dispensing table, your new glasses are displayed tastefully on some shmancy tray, and you try them on. You look around, and....there are no mirrors. The polite dispenser asks you how they feel, adjusts the glasses and checks the fit, but you can't concentrate because you want to know how you look. You check your vision, and its fine, but darn it, where's the mirror. There are a bunch on the wall, but you are sitting at a table and they are about 20 feet away. Then your friendly neighborhood optician hands you a tablet with a camera function pulled up and you only get to look at yourself while seated with a tablet. It's impossible to actually look at yourself because of the awkward angle of the camera, and it's not high def so you actually look like crap in the florescent lighting. You ask if they have any mirrors at the table, and you are cheerfully told that they have no more, but you can take a selfie and send it to your friend.
What say you? Am I just being crabby because I still don't know where I'm moving to in 6 weeks, or is this the stupidest thing you've ever heard of?
