what i would like to know is...where can i get a deal on lenses.
glasses on avg cost me $1000 (w/ lenses) and i only get 10 % selection on any typical store.
I paid recently $500 for lenses in my current frams (which i love delim.fr)
cuz yah..high prescription.
worst part is that even @ $550 for lenses, they do this thing where they make my eyes look small n squinty. anything i can do to increase my eyes to normal size?

Have you tried Contact lenses? They can cut your costs down by reducing the frequency of having to replace your glasses.
Not sure about Deals on lenses, but with your prescription you are pretty much going to be paying a much higher price. Thinner lenses etc. If you cheap out too much the lenses will be thicker, heavier and likely scratch much easier.
Not much can be done about the magnification effect the glasses have. High + lenses will magnify and high - lenses will minify. Contacts would be the best way to have your eyes look normal sized.
There are now extended range soft contact lenses out that will correct your prescription.
