I'm set for life, if they start to fade I just get them zapped back up free of charge.

The NHS pays for any glasses I get, I tend to get designer ones because they look better and the cost isn't that much given that the NHS pays for most of it. I'm due a new pair sooner or later, these are getting somewhat old.

I'd suggest that you try any glasses before you buy them.

Also, I prefer glasses to contacts. =x

I used to have those $300 glasses you guys are talking about. Like I said, my mom works at an eye doctors office lols. But I don't want to pay that much money for something I am just going to lose or break again.

I bought some prescription sunglasses online for like $15, and they are awesome. So, I'm not doubting this site.

They did say it can take like a month or so to get your glasses (as they are custom made, and have to be manufactured by children in China) but it takes forever when I go to the eye doctor anyway. If I get one good pair from this place, I'll order a few more. :] That way I can have some backup glasses (which I need quite often.)

I've heard marvelous things about ordering glasses from online.

They usually come shipped from Hong Kong or China but they're incredibly cheap and great quality.

I'll probably buy my next pair online.

My glasses, I can't swim without my glasses!

In other news, the NHS also subsidises the cost of my glasses. I still had to pay £40 on top to get the ones I wanted, though. I thought they were cool and trendy, but they were just ugly and fragile. I need a new pair, but Mr. Brown and his National Death Service can swivel if they think I'm paying £99 for frames and even more for the "spethul" lenses I need.

Well, if someone wants to rob me, the frame of my glasses is probably the most expensive thing I am carrying around.

Lol.

Same here.
I've had Chanel glasses for a good couple of years, and prolly will just get the same designer brand if I get new ones. I do look at the style codes online but I unno, I like trying glasses on in store in case they're odd feeling. Waiting for them to ship would be scary.

Why can't you swim without your glasses?

I have like 4.25 and 4.5 on the lenses and I can still swim and see everything just fine. In fact, when I put on my normal swimming "glasses" or whatever the hell they're called, I see just fine.

Then again, when I was changing my glasses about 2 months ago, I payed over $150 for them in For Eyes.
