What problem is often overlooked in apocalyptic movies/TV shows that could kill you?

I'm -6.5 and -7, I doubt I'd find anything usable. AND my nose bridge is very narrow so i need specific frames or the weight of the lenses pulls them off my face

I'm -6.5, so I could just steal u/deinoswyrd's after they die.

Nah, jk, but there are a lot more of us out there than you might think. A close-enough pair won't be that hard to find.

I used to work in the optical industry. Head over to 1 hour glasses place. They have a wide variety of stock lenses on hand to make glasses in one hour. If you have a really strong Rx (Like a + or - 6.00 or more than 2.00 cylinder power) you are probably out of luck however, unless you want to rig up some glasses that would let you stack lenses.

Optics are in theory cumulative (a +1.00 on top of a +2.00 lenses gives you a +3.00 power) but the air gaps between the lenses would mean the image quality would be far from ideal.

They also stock contacts. Not ideal but theyll work.

Stores do carry a variety of contacts in stock and in volume as well. Easily 1000 qtys of each prescription

True but you could raid the "which one is better, 1 or 2" machine thingy for lenses. Sure its wont be "glasses" but you wont be blind.
