Super-Week Shenanigans

Chuck Lensman

Hey everyone! Great to see you all. So, I just got back from something called 'Super-Week.' I thought it was going to be like the Olympics of eyewear. Turns out, it’s just a week where we pretend our optical lenses can solve world hunger. 'Here’s a Varilux Pro lens and a side of fries!'

You know, they say quality matters when it comes to eyewear. They have these high-tech lenses that are best in class. Best in class? Really? The last time I heard that phrase, I was in a third-grade spelling bee, and the only thing I won was a lifetime supply of disappointment. 'Congratulations! You can see, but can you spell 'cat?'

Personalized care is all the rage now. It's like, 'Oh, you enjoy extreme sports? Let’s get you glasses that can survive a base jump!' But honestly, if you’re doing extreme sports, you probably don’t care what your eyewear looks like. You just need to see where you're going before you slam into the ground!

So who here wears glasses? Raise your hand! (Wait for audience response) Nice! And who wears them to look smart? (Wait for laughs) You guys must be rocking that 'I-read-the-instructions' look! But let’s be real, half of us just wear them to see the menu at a restaurant.

And how about the follow-up care? ‘Hey, just checking how your glasses are working out for you!’ It’s like a bad relationship. ‘I swear I’ll change! I’ll stop fogging up every time you walk into a warm room!’

But you know what? At the end of the day, whether it's Super-Week or just another Tuesday, it’s all about making sure you see well and feel good. So next time you’re at the optometrist, just remember: if they start celebrating milestones, run! Unless they have cake. Then stay for the cake. Thanks for letting me share my lens on life with you all!
