Hey Glenn, Wow! I'm glad everything worked out just perfect for you! Haha, I don't think you have to fib to your optometrist. I think you should just tell them straight up, tell them you got it online from O4L! ;D It's always satisfying to me when someone else has a great experience. Let me know what you're gonna order next either from O4L or from elsewhere. I loved reading your review btw, very entertaining and I like your sense of humour.
Peace out, Elgin.
