I refused blue light filter on my glasses, and the eye spectacle shop was shocked

I just ordered new specs and the opto was the same way. But, they were happy with the two pairs of presbyopic myopic astigmatic wtf-priced lenses I got - one tuned 'near' for terminal work - and sent me on my way with a valid PD ... which I'm gonna have checked before sending it off to Zenni for the super-high-index daily-drivers with those sweet-sweet Mongolia-made lenses we all know the regular optos are using anyway.
