If you’re living in the US of A, you might have caught glimpse (in between those pervading presidential campaigns) of a new hot online company focused on helping people get better sight for a low price (which is also what most presidential candidates promise if you think about it – but i digress); yeah that’s the one, I’m talking about Zenni Optical, the premium source for low-cost prescription eye-wear. How low? as low as $8 for basic prescription, with a wide selection of frames and lenses to choose from. Isn’t that something worth remembering? Such prices are only possible when you cut the middleman, and sell directly to the public… god bless the Internet.

Our sight is one of the most important human senses, but it’s also one of the most overrated. I remember reading somewhere that about 80% of our perceptions are based on things we see, and I cannot help to feel that’s a bit too much. However, while we may not be able to redistribute our sensory inputs, at least we can do something to ensure our sight remains crystal clear, thus providing for a reliable interaction with that so-called “reality” surrounding us.

So, if you’ve been failing to see the amazing awesome-ness of this humble slice-and-dice corner of cyberspace (particularly if you’re one of the people who think the site’s design is outright ugly), this may just be the thing for you! Getting a better sight without losing sight of all your hard-earned cash, courtesy of these inexpensive eyeglasses. Now that’s just the way I like it; it almost makes me feel a little sad for not actually needing to wear vision aid.
