You have been able to buy glasses otc for a long time if you’re not picky about how accurate they are.

I thought they only sold reading glasses without a prescription? That's all I've ever seen. Nothing for people with myopia.

You can buy prescription glasses online.

You defenitely need a prescription to buy them online. Even for the cheap ass places

And an eye exam is, what, forty bucks?

Yeah if you see a doctor and get a prescription it's literally not OTC is what I'm saying. Idk what your going on about

How will you know what kind of glasses to get if you don't do an exam?

Zennis are accurate and cheap as dirt. I haven't gotten glasses anywhere else since I stopped buying from optical shops
