Just now went to do my specs, cause my eyesight getting worse and worse
cost like 570+ sia.. but its for 2 pairs.
last time i do only 100 for 2 pairs

the optician recommend this recommend that, initially 100+ but then she told me say that one wear liao got customer feedback say wear already got headache cause the lens not so good, blah blah.. but then i dont want to take risk so i get the better one.

Surprisingly singapore has the highest myopia in the world. The demand for glasses here are high but glasses here r not cheap.

why didnt you cross the border?!?!

 

[zurink]

not me. i got 2 friends who made before and cannot wear. then one of them found a shop recommended by their colleague who made very good progressive specs. i made there and have been wearing it well ever since.

expensive because i chose the best one with anti blue light, etc

Oh ur friends didnt ask for refund? Seems like progressive lens need higher skill. Not every optician shop can do it well.

I made a pair of spec with Carl Zesis progressive transition lens recently. The quality is not as good as Ownday. The len scratched easily even though it is scratch-resistance. I paid 2.4k fir this pair. Went back 2 times to the optical shop to change as the lens came with multiple hairline scratches.

Excluding the frame. Now regret liao cos hairline scratches appears again. Using same piece of cloth to clean both my Ownday and Carl Zesis and only Zesis kena scratched. Thinking going to check out Zoff.

Complained to the optician that the scratch resistance failed and it is less than a week old. Hairline scratches were observed under bright light. It is my ocd to check fro scratches under bright light.

How Crizal Works

• Anti-Reflective: Cancels bouncing light off the lens surface so more light passes through to your eyes, cutting down glare, halos, and reflections.
• Scratch & Smudge Resistance: Features hard coats and oleophobic (oil-repellent) top layers that resist fingerprints, dust, and water.
• UV Protection: Blocks harmful ultraviolet rays reflected from the back and front of the lens.
• Warranty: Most genuine Crizal coatings come with a 2-year warranty against scratching or crazing under normal use.

it's sort of like training grounds for their students right since they'll be the assessors

have you tried before, are the readings reliable and as good as the optical shop?
Since we'll be making online purchases solely based on their results.
