What's the price?
I made hoya lense for my son. $500+ without frame in sinkapore
Mine is Korean frame (180+myr)
And Hoya lenses with multiple coatings. Progressive, blue light anti scratch etc etc

All in is 1480 myr
Hoya also got some promotion now so throw in a coating that turns my lense to darken color under sunlight, which usually cost 600 myr by itself. This time it's free

I did mine at Yong Ming Oriental KSL

Got my IC Berlin for 1500myr thereabout including hoya lens. Berlian KSL.

Bought a back-up normal glasses MYR300+ including lens because my grandfather wanted to make and buy 2 cheaper. Some random shop in mid valley.

Got Zeiss lens some years back I think 1.5 times a hoya? Found no difference so just used back Hoya for my next pair.

I can 100% guarantee chop JB branded lens are cheaper.

I went into a spectacles shop in SG and tried to do a Lindberg. Came out to almost $1.2k or something stupid. I think the hoya lens was $300-400 alone I can't remember already.

I can make almost 3 pairs of IC berlin in JB.

do in msia definitely much cheaper...frame is cheaper, lens also cheaper
Ya did in Berlian KSL at least 6-7 pairs of IC Berlins by now throughout the years, they always give me a good deal. I think the prices went up slightly in recent years. But when I check in SG, almost $800+ for frame alone if i remember correctly.
