For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for June 14, 2019

She can’t see stairs and she bumps into things with a new pair of glasses? Sounds like the eye doctor did not do such a great job here.

NOW who feels insulted, Michael?

Good one Lizzie.

Touche! Liz

Payback Michael, payback.

Elizabeth, great snap in panel four for yesterday’s "Four Eyes’ remark.;-D

Like everything new, it takes getting used to.

Way to go, Elizabeth! Two can play at that game!

I’ve had my glasses for quite a while now, but I still can’t manage going down the stairs wearing them.

I think it is great that they can tell that kids need glasses at an early age. A friend’s kid got his at 2 years old. The kids have no reference to know they aren’t seeing well.

Paybacks, Michael.

Come to think of it. Now I remember the walk home with my first glasses(small town). The ground looked so close when I looked down. Made me a little dizzy.

And sometimes you even get the wrong prescription.

you all missed the point she burned them for calling her for eyes by letting him know how big is schnoz is

You go, lizzie! Sometimes brothers need a figurative slap upside the head to get their attention.

Nice comeback from the “four eyes” comment he made.

Tag Michael, your it!

When I got my first pair of glasses it seemed like everything was tilted slightly.

It is true what she says about stairs and distances because she was going by memory before, and now that she has the glasses, everything is so much clearer, that she’s using her new eyesight and not her memory…

.In my case, as soon as I put on my very first glasses at around age 55 or so, I told the optometrist that I was dizzy and of course she said that it takes a few days to adjust. Well, a week later, still dizzy and even my stomach was queasy from wearing them…I went back and they adjusted the fit—didn’t help. Two weeks later, still dizzy and they tell me to give it more time. Three weeks later, all kinds of explanations about the glasses being my first pair, etc. and that it takes time. I’m getting fed up already. I ask for another exam… turns out they wrote a wrong prescription, no allowance for astigmatism, and no allowance for close up…all kinds of sorry for your trouble, etc. New glasses come in—not dizzy, from the first try… I got $100.00 credit on my card by way of trying to make up. Never went there again. Found another optometrist who is a gem. Succeeding new pair—not one problem with it.

Retribution!

Back at ya! You tell ’em, Sweetie.

Astigmatism…

Doesn’t really need glasses. I was diagnosed with needing glasses at her age but they made things worse. Today I only need reading glasses and that’s because of age.

A zinger!

Way to go Lizzie, girl. Michael teased you so give it right back to him!

The first idiot eye doctor gave me tri-focals and I nearly killed myself falling down the stairs. We brought them back, got our money back and I went to another doctor and got distance glasses and reading glasses.

Eyeglasses can deceive the wearer.

When I first got glasses at age 8 it seemed as if the ground was raised higher.
