Yup, hate the feel of both the numbing drops and the dilating drops. And I feel really crummy until the stuff wears off. I have now gotten to the place that I discourage dilating my eyes unless they can give me a REALLY good reason why it is necessary this time!

Frame choices sound good. (Like the smaller frames for myself, but getting bifocals was a lesson in moving my head to see stuff, anyway. At least they aren't rubbing on my chubby cheeks! VBG!)

Sounds like you navigated the process well. Congrats!
