Need new bifocals can read little writing any more with mine & I haven’t had insurance for over 2 yrs past due for new ones.
My aging eyes desperately need an eye exam and new glasses. Not even the stronger part of my bifocals is strong enough for me to see clearly anymore and it’s been two years since my last exam.

I need this voucher so i can get new glasses I desperatly need. I do not have vision insurance and have only had my current glasses for about a year now. Already I am struggling to see but cannot afford another new pair. Thank you for the opportunity to win such an amazing prize!
I have been out of work for over a year and a half and have not had any health insurance. My glasses are so far out of date I don’t remember when I last got them. Not good when you are 59 years old and diabetic. It would also be nice to be able to see better!
Pinned and shared. Good luck, everyone!

My glasses are heading for 20 years old. Granted, I wear contact lenses most of the time, but I really need a new pair of glasses as backup.

I am desperately in need of new glasses!
Gah, I definitely need glasses but can’t afford them–or even the visit to the eye doctor. Something like this would be absolutely fantastic–thank you so much for the opportunity.
Both hubby and I are way overdue for an eye exam and some new glasses. This would be a great win!
I just saw the eye doc two days ago….time for my FIRST pair of glasses…BIFOCALS!!!!
I need a new prescription and this would be such a wonderful gift because like a lot of people my husband and I are struggling financially. Thanks for the opportunity!!
I could use some new glasses. I’ve had this pair for over 12 yewars old, and they were not even made for me. I got them at a thrift shop for $6. I was broke, my glasses were broken, and I desparately needed a pair to pass the driver exam.
They are amazingly close to my ols presciption, and I’m still broke, so I just keep wearing them instead of getting a new pair. But lately I need something for reading or computing, so I guess I really need bifocals. Thanks for the giveaway.
Been wearing my year’s worth of contacts for three years now, might be time to get a new one!
Eyes changing prescription -
Our insurance only covers one or the other (contacts)…and I’ve just lost my back-up pair of glasses!
I would love this to help my mom out in getting new glasses.
I posted it on my Facebook wall…

I am in need of an eye exam as my glasses need changed. My husband and I are retired and I’ve been putting this exam off for almost three years, due to the expense. I do not have insurance to help with expenses.
I pinned this and put it on facebook!
Like so many people, I don’t have insurance either and not only do I need new glasses for my aging eyes but my husband does, too and our youngest son needs new glasses as well.
Thanks for the chance to win. Blessings to All.
I also don’t have insurance and my old glasses are falling apart.
This is just the impetus I need to finally update my glasses to some with which I can actually see!
Pinned!
my son needs to have his eyes checked and probably new glasses, and my daughter has told me this week she couldn’t see the board in a class… myself and my husband are about due for a check. ALL of us could use this! Thanks for a great chance!
I need to update my glassses and don’t have insurance.
I am retired – no insurance – and really need bifocals! This would be great.
My husband is in need of new glasses. I had health problems last year and with our medical bills he had to wait on getting his glasses.
Pinned and shared on Facebook and twitter!
OOOh my goodness!! I could serious use a new pair of glasses-I was hoping for a new pair this year but now we have extra tax cuts and reduction in work hrs so this would be an awesome answer to a prayer.

I am having trouble seeing with my glasses & I
somehow scratched an area on them. Insurance does not pay very much.
My glasses are so scratched and I really need new lenses so badly. Pick me!!! Please!!!
I need a new pair of glasses have posted on facebook
We are seniors on a fixed income and really need checkups & new glasses. Would love to win this great prize!
My oh so crafty daughter has aged-out of all my insurance benefits, and hasn’t had new glasses in about 4 years! I would love to be able to afford new ones for her. Thanks for the giveaway, and the info about Sears eye health program!
Ok, so I hit the big 40 and find that my current glasses are not quite working right anymore. Ok, so I can admit it. I need bifocals. Nothing wrong with that, right? RIGHT! Oh and try telling that to my husband who drives a semi and has to pass his CDL every year. This year he almost didnt pass as he could no longer read the small lines. He has never worne glasses and this is killing him. hehe. I also have my son that changes his prescription every year.

I am losing my job and really, really need new glasses – getting hard to fill out all the employment applications.
I have not had new glasses in six years. I make my living doing intricate hand beaded adornments and I am struggling very hard to see properly…to a point where it is not so fun anymore. Scary. I would appeciate being able to see better.

My puppy took my glasses and I found them out in the backyard. I’m still using them, but they’ve definitely seen better days!
I neeeeeed this voucher, because I haven’t had my eyes checked for new glasses in a verrrrrry long time…know I need new ones…yipes!
Thanks for chance to win!
Everyone in my house wears glasses, we need this to keep me crafty. When you are putting glasses on kids you forget about the adults, my husband and I are both overdue for glasses.
I’d love to get some real glasses and stop wearing dollar-store ones!
I need bifocals but cannot afford them. Thanks for the chance to win!
I haven’t gotten a new pair for a few years and I am starting to get headaches because I need a new prescription badly.
I need an eye exam and new lenses. My vision has changed. I am on a fixed income and new glasses have not been on the menu for so long, I can’t even remember.
I need new glasses. I need them to see far off, but can’t see up close with them, so I end up taking them off or wearing them on top of my head. I guess I need to admit to need bifocals… sigh…
I tweeted! https://twitter.com/giddy99/status/297436587246092288
I have been putting off getting new glasses, due to the expense. I have had cataracts removed from both eyes and was told my vision wouldn’t change. Right now, I am using drug store glasses to read with and do my sewing/quilting as the left eye has changed so much.
Living on a fixed income is no picnic!
I would love to win the voucher : )
Gosh, I guess we really need this because all four of us wear glasses.
My daughter and I are both due for new glasses and this would definitely be welcome to win!
I do so much crafting and sewing and it’s getting harder to see. But my main reason for thinking I need this voucher is I wake up some mornings and things are quite blurry and it can take an hour or more to get back to normal vision. ???…???
Both hubby and I are on disability and both need new glasses, this sure would help. I liked you and Sears on facebook. Thank you for the chance to win. Good luck everyone, we all could use them.

The glasses I have now the color is coming off the sides. Getting to look bad.
Use it for my daughter last got her glasses in 4th grade now in 8th she needs new ones
I need this prize to buy prescription sunglasses due to having cataract surgery.
I could really use it because I wasted so much money last fall buying a new pair of glasses at a new drs office. I don’t know whether the problem is because they are Crizal lens or that I got the feature that they darken in bright sunlight, but I can’t see clearly with them. Everything is a bit blurred and it is dangerous to drive with them. I can see better with an old pair of glasses that I have had for 15 years!!
I really could use a pair of glasses with un-scratched lens.
Gonna be 59 in a month and I am raising my 2 grandaughters. I do not have insurance and need new glasses. My eyes seem to be getting worse. Sure would be nice to win this!
My husband and I are in need of new glasses, we both wear bifocals, and this would greatly help such an expensive purchase. Iam also wanting to try transitions lenses myself , so I feel this would be a great opportunity!! Can’t wait to “see” the results!
My husband and I both need new glasses. We don’t have insurance. This voucher would greatly held cut the costs of getting new glasses. Being retired, we need all the help we can get. Thanks
I really need new glasses and , as so many of us know, the economy has kicked my wallet right where it hurts.

My daughter was in a car accident on 12/12, and her glasses were loss or ejected from the car. Her severe concussion is playing havoc with her eyes. She is uninsured, and desperately needs new glasses. This would be a real Godsend for her.

Long overdue for a new prescription. On social security, and Medicare eyeglass pharmacy prices are more than I can afford. A price break at Sears would be wonderful.
In the past month I have had two major eye surgeries and when things heal will need a new pair of glasses. I was legally blind before the surgeries but am very lucky and have regained a lot of vision thanks to a fantastic doctor!
Like most of us, unemployment, no insurance and bad economy – glasses are becoming more of a luxury and less of a necessity. A lot of us take poor eyesight as just a part of life now.
I help supplement our household by letting my creative side blossom. I can’t hold a job as I get cluster headaches. However I’m very busy making stained glass panels for our military and making coasters and Jewerly in my kiln. The cluster headaches have caused 7 Cataracts and I can no longer drive at night. I make do with cheater glasses from walmart but soon those will need to be replaced with real glasses. My husband needs glasses too. It just seems there is always something more important to purchase. I would LOVE to get good glasses after my surgery in June.
Thanks!!!
I pinned it and tweeted it!! Good luck everyone!!
My glasses are about three years old . . . I really, really need new ones but they are soooo expensive!
With no insurance and the eyes getting worse this would surely be nice to have. Its harder to see to drive and my close up work also.
thank you for a great giveaway
Id love new glasses! Thanks for the chance!
Wow! This would be great. I need new glasses – getting hard to see through the scratches. Thanks
I got laid off and dont have insurance now, my glasses got a scratch and they fall off my face! This would be nice!
Overdue for new bifocals … and absolutely love the glasses I’m wearing now, purchased from Sears a few years ago — with ‘magnetic clip on’ sunglasses!
I haven’t had a new pair in a long time no insurance and no money, I live on a small income
I pinned it and tweet also
No insurance and its been a couple of years since I have been checked. I need to wear glasses for distance and reading.
I pinned the giveaway!
This would be a great blessing for my daughter . She just had her eyes examined for the first time in about 4 years then had to cancel her glasses because she didn’t have the money. She has 2 small children . Her son had brain surgery in September and is still having issues. And all of his medical expenses over the last 4 years is putting their home at risk of forclousure.

I need +7 to see my crafts clearly (very far sighted.) Drug store reading glasses only go to +3.5. When no one’s around to see (and call me 6-eyes, like one “friend” did), I was doubling up 2 pairs of $10 drug store glasses & it actually works if you find a style frame you can wear 2 of at once. (+3.5 + +3.5 = +7 and so on) Embarrassing to admit, but since I can see times are really tough for a lot of people, thought it might be something for folks without $300 for prescription ones to try when you’re alone with your crafts (unless you’ve got a really tough skin & don’t mind the teasing!
– its better than nothing, anyway, that’s for sure. – good luck in the contest.
My family is overdue for eye exams and new glasses; I’ve been unemployed for two years and my husband only works part time and so we have no insurance. A voucher for the optician could at least cover the exams.
Thanks for the great giveaway.
I need this voucher for my son who is unemployed and wearing a pair of glasses that he’s had since high school. One of the ear pieces is broken and the prescription is out of date. No insurance, no paycheck…. means no glasses. Thanks for the chance to win this much needed prize.

I need this voucher because my eyes are straining when I read recently. It’s my sign that I need a new prescription. I’ve needed a different perscription every two years since I was in 6th grade. That was a LONG time ago.
Thanks!

I need this voucher because my prescription has changed due to cataract surgery. I could get sunglasses AND regular single vision glasses with this prize!
I haven’t had new glasses in over three years. This would be really great! Thank you!
My glasses were recently destroyed by my Great Dane, Kingston. He decided that he needed them more than I and ate them 4 days ago. And like everyone else money is really tight in our household. Thanks for listening.
I could use this because I need a new pair of bifocals and no money to get right now.

I just started needing to wear glasses. I have found out quickly they are not cheap.
Thank you for the giveaway!
I’m ashamed to say that I have been using the same eyeglasses for 4 years now due to my college student budget. Not to mention my slightly skewed priorities placing sewing budget over eye glasses lol! I would love to update my prescription and get some trendy cats eye glasses.
Thank you for having such an awesome giveaway, good luck everyone!
I am due for an eye exam and spend a fortune on a new prescription every year. I could really use this!
I haven’t had an eye exam for many years and I know I need new glasses. This would be a godsend.
I need this voucher because I can barely read, I need a new prescription, and my old frames just broke! I have no vision coverage so I have to pay completely out of pocket. I want to keep my eyes working well right now using a broken pair of glasses with an old prescription doesn’t seem healthy to me…I could really use this!

My eyesight has dramatically declined recently. My insurance covers only the bifocal lined ones, the cheapie ones that have that break easily. I NEED one that won’t show the bifocal line, due to my eye sensitivity (I get extremely dizzy looking through lenses with bifocal lines and things up close) and want a good one that will last. Not enough money to make ends meet, no less pay for specs. Thank you for this giveaway. At least one of us will be blessed.

I would use this for my daughter: she is 25 and unable to work, and she’s still using the same glasses she had in high school. Her vision has changed so she reads very little now. I’m an afterschool teacher so my salary doesn’t allow for an extra that is actually a necessity…
my glasses are so scratched I need to see my art work
Oh my goodness! What amazing timing for this awesome giveaway!! I haven’t had an eye exam in over three years and my current glasses are, well, kinda useless at this point! I found that my insurance doesn’t cover optical and as a single mommy to three kiddos, I’ve had to put off buying new glasses due to my financial responsibilities for my children. I would be speechless to actually WIN a gift certificate to get new eyewear! Thanks!
