I love that a large portion of my paycheck goes to the privilege of having insurance that applies to nothing. It’s a neat system.

Dental insurance literally should be called tooth cleaning insurance because that’s basically all it covers

At least it's better than vision insurance. Which is basically just making name brand frames slightly cheaper

Wear the same pair of cheap online glasses until you can barely see and need to buy a new pair gang

Unfortunately my eyes say fuck me and need new lenses every year. Funny thing is the frames are nothing compared to lense prices :(

If you are in the US, see if you have americasbest.com near you. Their eyecare club is $130 for three years and you get up to 2 exams per year. Then just take that rx to your preferred online store.

love that my insurance doesn't cover any of the CPAP equipment I need from my medical supplier that refuses to ship me certain parts because my insurance hasn't authorized it even though they're not paying a dime for it so I just buy cheaper knockoffs on Amazon and roll the dice to see if they'll fit properly or not so I haven't actually had a decent night's sleep in months
