Glasses

I took my own advice and ordered sunglasses from a mail order ("web order"?) place, Zenni Optical. I don't have any confidence that they will be usable, but hey, I'm willing to risk $46 to find out if they're any good. Actually, I should say "I didn't have any confidence." A couple days after submitting my order, I received an e-mail:
Dear Mr. Larkins,
Before processing your order further, we need to clarify the entry that has been made for the Spherical readings for the OD (right eye) -1.50 and OS (left eye) +0.25. In most instances, they should be the same polarity, either both positive, or both negative. Would you please verify the polarities on these entries?

Please email us your confirmation so we may proceed with your order.

Thank you for selecting Zenni Optical for your vision needs.

I never thought anyone would actually read the information I sent. I thought they'd just plug the numbers into a machine, grind the lens, and send them out.

I'm very encouraged.
