I thought about having a laser surgery but apparently, I could still need to wear glasses which makes no sense at all.

I have a weakness for Oakley frames, the specificities frame can only be purchased online. Plan was to take the frames into Costco and have it glazed with vdu lenses. Will the frames qualify as a company expense as well even though only the reglaze portion on the transaction will be invoiced as vdu?Comment

Got some from Boots. Quite handy when logging in online and then having to check me cheap little phone for the OTP.bloggoth

I think it goes on the prescription? Not sure as I still have 20/20 vision...Comment

Originally posted by ladymuck View PostIf the prescription clearly states "for VDU" then the cost of supplying the glasses is ok. You can't use the lenses without a frame...
