NEWMtnMama Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 I had a rapid onset cataract that suddenly fogged up my vision. Had it operated on yesterday by Dra Marianna at Quality Care. Got the bandage off today and I haven't seen this well in a long time. I got the corrective lens for distance but I need cheaters for up close. Found the glasses but I need one of those necklace thingies that allows you to hand the glasses around your neck. Any idea where to buy one? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinR Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Sounds like you got the basic lens in one eye... Could you share the cost?... Do you know what the cost would have been with a multifocal lens?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWMtnMama Posted December 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 First the number to call for an appointment for Dra Mariana Diaz at Quality Care is 332 050 4009 I paid under 24,000 pesos for a monofocal lens. No idea what multifocal would cost. The clinic, Armonia Visual Integral, in Quad is very modern, very professional, and most personnel spoke English. The only reason I didn't go to Dra Claudia was because of the stairs to her office. Again, does anyone know where I can get one of those thingys to hang the reading glasses around my neck?

ibarra Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Did you try Mia's as I suggested earlier?

Hoping not to have to pay shipping to Amazon or maybe get the item from Mercadolibre. Hoping someone knew of someplace more accessible.

Sea Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 The glasses retainers around here tend to be hand made, over priced, heavy... like made of stones or metals that give you rashes. If you want the cord types or sports types, I think Amazon is your best, or only, bet. I just checked and of course they have the glass bead types, but they are lighter. Check them out. I think you'd be best served to bite the bullet on the shipping cost. My favorite is this type https://www.amazon.com.mx/Chums-Slip-Rope-Eyewear-Retainer/dp/B00026T3VY/ref=d_pd_day0_sccl_2_11/143-5167497-5719842?pd_rd_w=QnREA&content-id=amzn1.sym.1c8f9346-a87e-48c7-994a-82c93e96af91&pf_rd_p=1c8f9346-a87e-48c7-994a-82c93e96af91&pf_rd_r=NFA6TB12SXTVBGKC9BSH&pd_rd_wg=ZruuH&pd_rd_r=4234acfb-a55d-46f6-81b8-5ff8efc29931&pd_rd_i=B003CK0IBG&th=1 But they have as many types as flavors of ice cream. And I'm sure everyone giving you advice has different tastes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
