I bought Lenskit Porgrssive lens last year, now, the coating chui liao. I probably need to do another pair.

Will be avoiding Lenskit. Their homemade progressive lens really cmi. Cheap ≠ Good

What happened to the coating? Other than the coating, how is the lens in terms of the progressive part? Yours is normal, Wide Corridor or Wider customized Corridor?

The price really depends on the index and the tier of the lenses. Generally for low degrees (1.5 index, from ~100 to about ~4.00), starts from about 650 for the Pure series and up to 1450 for the highest range Individual series.

The prices are generally quite fixed as there is a fixed RRP set by the supplier, but some places may still give discounts off that RRP.

Not familiar with their lenses, but generally the wider the corridor of progressive lenses, the wider your range of vision (don’t have to turn your head so much), and generally there will be lesser swim effect/distortion that comes by default with progressive lenses.
