I should add that we have tried the optical shop at her ophthalmologist's office and haven't been pleased - the lenses were thick and had a lot of glare.

DD15 typically wears contacts but needs new glasses. She is farsighted with an astigmatism and a fairly high prescription (+6.50). We tried an online provider with which we have had luck in the past (Zenni's 1.74 high index lenses) and are very disappointed -- the glasses we received are way, way, way thicker than they should be and have that distorted "big eye" look. They are so much thicker than her previous Zenni glasses. I don't know what happened.

She has mostly stopped growing, so I am willing to spend $$ to get really good lenses that are thinner, have excellent clarity, don't have the visual distortion, and have excellent anti-glare coating. We are looking for something like Zeiss Clearview or Hoya double aspheric NuLux lenses that will produce a much more normal looking appearance. What is the best place for this in the area? We are in Northern Virginia but willing to drive.
