DD had an eye exam on Tuesday and she is going to need glasses. Her eyesight is only slightly bad at 20/40. She is really upset about having to wear glasses. I remember being her age and not wanting to wear glasses either, but my eyesight was way worse so I *had* to wear them.
We do not have vision coverage, so we pay out of pocket. Which is really fine with me. Most vision plans don't really cover squat anyway.
Her visit was $160. Planning to purchase the glasses thru Costco.
She has a dental appointment next week. $25 co-pay.

DH's visit to the doc last week will be costing us about $340 without the xrays. Haven't gotten a bill for those yet. His medical coverage is catastrophe type; $5000/yr deductible, so little check-up stuff is all out of pocket.
He called his doctor again yesterday because he has a really harsh, painful chest cold/cough. She didn't need to see him again. Just prescriptions for antibiotics and a new inhaler at Costco for $43.
------
I have a dental cleaning next week, I think?
That will be a $25 co-pay.
------
Have a $370 bill sitting at home that's from DS's last visit and vaccinations.
Geesh! I am trying to save money here!!
