Hi! If you/she have high nose bridge then no worries. Those plastic ones or even silicon one will work fine for you. Wrong bridge size as in what way? Sitting wrongly? Looking through wrong area??

Hi. Will wearing a spec with wrong bridge size cause pain around the eyebrow region? I have a wife and high nose bridge. Looking for rectangular shape specs. What are the types should I worry about? Thanks.

They are very fast, all ready in 1-2 hours, one even offered to courier to singapore if a complicated lens need more time but its still definitely less than a week.

Oh just in case u are mistaken, that MOG sale photo i posted was from last year at KSL, but even without sale, prices in JB are still cheaper than here.

yup glasses in singapore is just expensive.. The one that I am wearing at home costed me like $260 but they are too ugly to be worn outside (got them in my secondary nerdy days). The other pair which I am wearing is from owndays- cheap but quality is bad.

With that being said, would my choices be sufficient if I go into jb with a budget of $150? or 450 rm :s13:

I believe it depends on your Astigma. Lens will be expensive if your Astigma is high.

as you get older, you might have long sightedness, do it affect your short sightedness ?

i am 43 and recently, my glasses seems to be not very clear and i need to bring items with small wordings a distance away to see them clearly,

wonder if i should go and get my eye sight checked and maybe need to change the lenses of my 4 to 5 glasses

Is it normal for the degree to decrease? Tested my eyesight and was told that degrees decreased by 50.

Hi guys, thanks in advance for any recommendations.
Basically I have 200 deg only in my left eye.
So I don't really need to wear glasses because my right eye compensate most of the time.

But night driving can be quite challenging and I travel quite a bit.

So I am looking for a pair of transition lens with a pair of compact frames which hopefully can be kept in a strong box which are as thin as 2cm if possible. Basically so I can keep it in my travel bag or jacket without accidentally crashing it.

Merry xmas bro!

Long sightedness in some cases will cause ur short sightedness to improves slightly.
Whatever that is happening to you now is the result of presbyopia/laohua.
Probably you need to switch to a progressive lens. Its better to start early so as to have better adaptation or else when your reading power increases further, adaptation will be harder as you will have the common complains of giddy, dizzy, floating sensation.

Yes its normal! Apart from nature taking its course, other reasons might be sometimes your vision might fluctuate at different times of the day causing your prescription to fluctuate with it. Good example is after a long day using computer/office work and you take an eye examination, usually the power might not be as precise as you might have some difficulty focusing due to the fatigue throughout the day!

Merry Xmas bro,

i think they refer to it as trueform premium and trueform summit. Difference is premium has a wider field of view for reading and sharper clarity at distance as compared to trueform summit. But trueform summit is still better than the normal summit series lenses(economy class lenses). Pricewise is depending on the shop already. As we know, different places quotes different discount. So it subjective:)

Merry Xmas bro,

Actually this is not really good for you in long term as you are relying on one eye to do most of the heavy lifting(seeing). Might have more eye strain and all.
You can consider looking at frames like Form-max where it can bend/fold? into a thin 2-3cm thick frame? Take note that transitions doesnt really change in the car due to the UV protection your car windscreen has.
Hope this helps!
