Pick your pair

Prescription glasses frames line the wall of a room in the optometry clinic at the 35th Medical Group at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Jan. 21, 2016. Service members requiring corrective lenses are issued a new pair of heavy duty frames, a pair of metal frames of choice and gas mask inserts annually. Patients are initially screened by ophthalmic specialists and then after a brief stint in a waiting room, the optometric physician finds their prescription and discusses their retinal health or any other symptoms of disorders they may have found. Ophthalmic specialists also teach patients the best practices for protecting their eyes. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Benjamin W. Stratton)
