No environment is well lit.
So if I get rose tint clip on and mixed with tokai lense.
Will it be a good combo?
I am afraid it might affect your contrast more than it should help..
the rose tint naturally should help by itself. Do you experience a lot of migraines, blurring of vision etc?

Any ideas? I notice rose tint fl-41 glasses are not easily found in singapore.
rose tint might look abit ugly?
Hi!
They are not, so far I believe owndays might have them.
it’s user benefits e.g. reduces migraines etc, far outweighs any negativity. I understand there are studies that show it helps however just imo it would be better to have more results from those literature articles.
No harm trying, it gives the RDjr /JDepp feel anyway.
If they blue light filter is not alleviating much of the migraine then give this solution a try.

I see that the blue lights lens also prevent glares?

Eyeshield + S$100
Protect your eyes from blue light emitted by computer and smartphone screens.​

An advanced blue light lens which defends against blue light and glare all day long. Eyeshield lenses filter up to 40% of harmful blue-violet light from electronic devices and the environment. The lenses also come with an anti-reflection coating that reduces glare which can disturb the vision, especially at night.

That looks so similar to an Oliver’s people haha. They should something similar to it. I would recommend you to Jamco optical. They have frames that look like these and budget should be well within what you prepared!
thanks for recommending jamco. Went down today and tried a brand called Lindberg. Really love the fit and slimness. It’s thin and slim I’m worried about the durability of it. Are they good? Was quoted 870 including zeiss lens w/o blue filter. Really thinking of purchasing it haha

Hi!
Lindberg is the brand that quite Afew of us are talking about and using here too. The durability is good as long as we don’t put too much impact on them. For frame and lens at 870… it’s a really good price. The frame in general goes for abou 700-800 thus I believe you are given a good discount.
Cheers!!

Yep pricing is definitely fair. The tag price was $840, which I believe is one lindberg's lower end model. I also went to o+ today to see see. Have you tried the brand before?

Lindberg has no lower end model. Rather their premium is the buffalo horn, diamond and gold frames. Just that they gave you a good discount haha.
Nope did not do any with o+

If it’s central, I would recommend eyewear optics, if it’s the east then jamco at katong or kj optometrists at SingPost.
Any to recommend for West side?

& btw, any updates/replacement/successor to the Hoya Sync 3 lines?

Sync 3 is really good so as of now.. the next would be progressives.
West side.. tbh not much(there will be just that I am not too familiar).I can only think of east/central..

Hi, they need an iPad equipped with the Hoya App to test.
If not you should look towards mystyle profile which has 5 different preset customisation for different usages.

Yes, they will take the front and side measurement.
For mystyle V+ , there is a survey to do. If it’s not done then default value will be used.
For mystyle profile, just front and side measurement.
