No change at all in my prescription for glasses or contacts Rick. Been pretty much the same prescription since 2012. Was pleasantly surprised though. Found out the vision insurance I have through the state as an employee is most excellent. No copay and it covered almost all of my contact lens fitting fee. Only had to pay 12.75 out of pocket after everything was said and done at the eye doctor. And they did not have to dilate my eyes this year.

That it is Rick. I am use to paying more at the eye doc for everything. And an even more pleasant trip home was turned funny when I got to see not one but 2 karma cops in action.

That they were Rick. I had just gotten on the highway to head home and at the next exit a state trooper got on and got in front of me. He hit the brakes twice changed back over a lane and immediately pulled over someone, then a minute or two down the road another state trooper on the other side of the highway pulled over someone else.
