I need new trifocals and do not have the finances. Where can I get help to pay this $300.00 expense.

Contact your local Lion's International group. They provide services for sight impaired as well as the blind. They can help you locate low cost/no cost clinics.

Volunteer Organizations: Lions Clubs International

True, also your local Salvation Army might be able to help. They do here.

Also ask some of the eye doctors, see about payment plans, I know my wife and I normally make payments to the eye doctor for our glasses.

I haven't tried this site yet but it came highly recommended to me.

Try calling your mp! They can help as well!

I would take heed to all of the answers above because the information they provide are all things that are worh trying.

Good luck to u!

They are not necessarily $300. If you are on a tight budget you should be bargain shopping. Wal-mart can offer trifocal lenses for $65 most places, and frames for $10.

I don't recommend this site, they don't validate your prescription. What if you mess up typing and they send you the wrong prescription and you don't know? That could be detrimental to your eye site. This is unsafe.
