Corey’s New Look
Corey has had bad eye sight for a while now, but he wouldn’t get his eyes checked, until a couple of weeks ago, because he didn’t think his eyes were “that” bad. It turns out his prescription is nearly as strong as mine.
Anyway, based on that previous statement, you can probably guess that Corey needs glasses, which he does and got today.
While I was at work, he sent me a picture showing me what he looks like in his new glasses. Lauren and Guy, two of my co-workers, asked me why Corey was so sad in his picture. I relayed the message to him. About five minutes later, he sent me the second photo.

Corey’s really self-conscious about the glasses. He’s afraid he doesn’t look good in them. I told him that it’s just because he’s not used to seeing himself in them. Personally, I think they look nice on him. They make him look sophisticated, don’t you think?
He’s also having a hard time with the fish bowl effect. If you wear glasses, you know what he means by that. It happens to all first-time glasses wearers. I told him that he just has to get used to having corrective lenses. At this point, he’s not sure if it was a good idea to have had his eyes checked, even though the world is much sharper and focused now. (After he picked me up from school, he told me he liked it better when the world seemed softer … blurrier–see pictures below.
) I think he’ll like them more once he gets used to not only how they look, but how they change/improve his vision.

PS–For the record, he said he wasn’t sad in the first picture. He just doesn’t always smile in pictures.








Nice spec’s Corey.
No, Corey, they look great! I’m glad you can see the world a little better now.
They’re great! You look very handsome, Corey! And…really, the other drivers like that you can see better
Lookin good!
They’re great! I always like the way the world looks through my sunglasses, so he’s not crazy.
Just as stylish as ever! You look great!
I talked to Corey yesterday on iChat and thought he looked really sharp in his new glasses.
Sophisticated, handsome, trendy!
I think the glasses give Corey an air of credibility somehow. They look GREAT!
I think they look really really good. And I’m not just saying that. Corey has one of those faces that would work well with many styles. And I would know! I always get excited when people get new glasses and get them for the first time. I know I’ve been out of the buis for a couple of years. But I still keep up my certifications, so If he has any questions from someone he trusts, tell him to call me. They look amazing Corey….I couldn’t have picked a better pair myself. Just out of curiosity what’s his rx? And what kind of lenses did he get?
those are sweet looking glasses. maybe lasik someday…
Looking good. I always wanted glasses so people would think I was smart. Now that I’ve lost/losing my hair I hope people will think I’m smart. As a positive note…you still have your hair.
