How old do you have to be to buy glasses?

I don't want to burden my parents with them having to take me to buy glasses, I was wondering how old you have to be to buy glasses on your own? I have a prescription that hasn't expired and just need to buy the lenses and the frame.Do I need a parent? Also, if I was to need a new prescription in the future, would I need a parent to take me to get an eye exam? (Assuming I have no insurance; thus, no need for their information about it since there is none).
I'm 17 in the state of Texas.
Thank you.
