A husband and wife arrived at our office, both complaining of blurry vision
and seeing double. The
wife had been examined a week prior and the doctor
had written a new rx with 2 1/2 diopters of prism base out OU
that she'd been
wearing in all her previous glasses.
He's 93
years old, she's 89. They were both quite distraught until
I took her pretty pink-framed
bifocals with prism off her husband's face
and the large double bar gunmetal trifocals
off her face and switched
them to
their 
proper owner. Suddenly each was seeing 20/20 and happy as a clam!
As they were leaving, I asked how they had gotten to our
office.
"I drove us," answered the husband.
Pretty scary scenario, don't you think?
