Go to your local drug store and pick out a nice generic set of glasses.

If your local drug store is anything like mine you'll find that
they only have generic 'reading glasses'; i.e. with magnifying
(positive diopter) lenses. I've never seen the equivalent for
glasses to correct myopia which requires negative diopter lenses.

But that internet site with the $20 glasses looks like it'll be
worth a try.

My medical requires me to wear lenses which correct for distant vision.
There, that makes this post on-topic.

I've been wearing contacts for over 30 years, same prescription every

time,

hasn't changed in all that time. I also carry a set of regular glasses in
my ditty bag on the off chance some day I'll tear a lens while on the road
and have to use the glasses.

As you can imagine, after 30 years of fighting it out with the toothpaste
and razor, tumbling about as the airplane moves smartly through

turbulence,

those glasses are scratched and pretty snotty looking.
