Owndays is from Japan. Other chain stores are Jin, Zoff, etc. But do you speak Japanese? I think the eye examination is going to be difficult without being able to communicate right? They might be unwilling to accept a prescription written in English...

brought my kids last dec to this place (iirc)..cheaper than local..after speaking a while in english with one of the staff, realised he was chinese (they are everywhere in Japan)...JAPANTWO Blog » Blog Archive » J!NS | Tokyo,Japan guide to Travel, Living, Food, Culture, Anime, Manga and Things to Do.. If you know where the Garrett is in Harajuku, it's across the street when Garrett is behind you.
yes i have friends who swear by JINS as well. can be done in 30mins apparently

Those major chains can usually get it done in a hour if your prescription is not too extreme.

Can try Jin, it will be ready in 1-2 hours. Don't worry about the communication part as they have cards with translation.

Price ranging from SGD90 - 150. Cheaper than SG. :s12:
