OK, I want to do this list as a group project. This doesn't mean we agree or disagree with the trend, but that we just recognize it. Let's throw out some candidates, discuss, and then maybe I'll figure out a way to post it as a poll and we can vote!
In no order (yet):
Online DIY
Blue-filter
Digital designs
Large eyesizes
Crystal frames
Computer-distance lenses
I'm Andrew Hamm and I approve this message.
1. Young people buying traditionally old people glasses (sold the same semi-rimless large oval gunmetal to only 50+ men for years, and now the 20-30 crowd are buying them)
2. Patients seeking inefficient, piece-meal everything
3. large eyesizes
4. larger "chunky" plastics
(I have crystal frames in various styles and see them on TV, but few seem to seriously consider them)
Larger round metal frames
Enormous rebates for annual supplies of daily contacts
I'm Andrew Hamm and I approve this message.

Or will slipping glasses become a fashion trend?
