    YOu can get some really funky resin frames too - mine are a dark blue on the outside, but they are lime green on the inside of the frame and they look awesome!

    Not sure how old you are hun but I know that my optometrist said that they tend to get progressively worse til you hit around your 30s and should steady off after that - exactly what happened to me with only slight fluctuations after I turned 30, ahem 5 years ago. Might be the case that they will change a bit before they settle if you are a spring chicken unlike myself!

    Do you have PHI? If so, you can get some at alot of Specsavers and not pay anything at all

    I love, love glasses. I make them part of my fashion accessory.
    When you say, re re fixed, do you mean old lenses into new frames? If so, then that could be the cause of your giddiness, they could be off axis slightly.
    Get them tested at least, that is Bulk Billed on Medicare, then go from there.
    Make sure if you don't want to get them that day, you ask for your prescription to take.
    I have a friend who buys his online, he always looks great.

    I think you should definately either get brand new glasses or at least wear the ones you have if your prescription is current. I just got new glasses & it took a week or two to get used to. My prescription hadn't even changed much.

    If you are driving, it is very important that you wear your glasses. Just consider the safety of your DD. And since your location says you're on the Sunny coast, think of the safety of MY DD!!!

    FWIW, I think glasses look hot. AND make you looks heaps smarter. Well they make me feel smarter anyways.
