Thanks! I have sent an email and will update if they reply. I will not hold my breath though.

Thank you kindly for the reply. This makes some sense. It is just so scummy feeling because the information is there, it is about me, but I can't use it to shop around. I probably just had a great opto who went above and beyond back in the day and that coloured my expectations.

Awesome. I have the PD measurement from that picture, along with other measurements.

I assume this covers everything the lens folks will need.

[–] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Since I was able to get the measurements from the app he was using I think this is going to be my course of action. I will ask for my script from the optometrist and then take the pupil measurements from that picture and send them to someone who will make the lenses for my sunglasses.

Thanks! Yeah I won't be going back there. They were so pushy about only using their brands, and denying me access to my own info.

I was billed for the eye exam separately from the glasses. $220 CAD.

[–] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 month ago (3 children)

What a scummy way to act. I paid 220 dollars for the exam, I think I should 'own' the output. Especially since it is literally my personal health data.

I'll poke around to see if I have any recourse.

Thanks! I had thought the same.

It all felt so forced and scummy. I am going to go back and demand all the information (politely)

I just realized this might not be the right community. Please feel free to remove the post if it doesn't fit the 'thought-provoking' tag.

For the TV show? And is it on sh.itjust.works? WE NEED TO KNOW!

It is nothing fancy.

I have an old SodaStream that I picked up second hand for 20 bucks, and an adapter from amazon that lets me hook up to a bar/resto sized CO2 container.

Add in a 5 foot extension line from a bar setup so that it can live up on a shelf and we are done.

The savings are remarkable. Instead of 20 bucks for 60litres of water, which I go through in about ten days, I get about 5 months of super bubbly water for 45 bucks total.

Orange Vanilla by polar springs.

Or anything in my DIY sodastream setup ;)
