Everything was great
Everything was great! My only issue was how mixed up the different price categories are... I had to browse 100's of frames I couldn't afford to find the handful I could mixed amongst them.
I understand why they do it, and it costs them two stars since they want use tactics that inconvenience me to coax more money out of me.

Transitions for daytime...Just anti-glare for night.
I had gotten new transition bi-focal glasses six months ago. They worked well during the day, but I found that they darkened at night from the glare of oncoming vehicles, making it impossible to see the road. I had to take off my glasses to see, which was not optimal. I was able to get new glasses with a lower transition and anti-glare that help improve my ability to see better at night. It's not perfect, but definitely an improvement.
