Comment on If there's a sort of "apocalyptic" event but there are still surviving communities, will people be able to make eyeglasses again, or are people with vision issues gonna be fucked?

  I have never put on a pair that was even close to my prescription. In fact, this post made me realize I’ve been wearing my old glasses all day and that’s why I have a headache.

    There are always exceptions to the rule. There are people that have super special prescriptions and then there are other people that just have the standard stuff due to age, etc.

    Based on that, the majority of people would have a pair that match them. Anyone else with special glasses would be shit out of luck because as the title says it’s the end of the world and only a few peops left.

    Let’s not be ruled by exceptions to the rule. It is only a tiny amount.

  Glasses aren’t all the same, you know. What if you have a really crazy prescription?

    Out of all the people with glasses in the world, there’s somebody who’s almost guaranteed to have the same eyes.

      Your mission is to find that person, and steal their glasses.
