A nearsighted RX has edge thickness. If you use a smaller frame with a full plastic frame it will hide that edge thickness.

The bigger your frame and the less frame covering the lenses the more noticeable your lenses.

Also you really should be in a hi-index/digital material

In my honest opinion the doctors exam fee should not be free. Let's face it most people go because they need glasses.

But wouldn't you want to know if your vision is going to last. To make sure you don't have a potentially blinding disease. Any place that is giving a free eye exam is an optical mill. They are trying to sell glasses by getting patients in and out of the chair.

That being said you are getting an inferior eye exam and possibly a shitty prescription.

What about the mirror coating on the Maui Jims. They are some of the highest quality sun glasses on the market. They use a mirror coat that doesn't impede with the optical center of the lens.
