How are Owndays Snap? Is the quality good?

 

[londonbowler]

Can I ask about the quality of Owndays lenses versus branded lenses (Zeiss, Hoya, Essilor) for very simple and low grade lenses (up to 2.00)?

For this kind of lens, what is the best way to buy? Is it cheaper to buy online if you already have a prescription from opthalmologist and it already shows the centering of the lens needed?

Is it cheaper to buy online or in a physical shop for prescription lenses?

Is there any kind of coating on the lenses that you should really get, like blue light or scratch resistance? (So much upsell!)

Is it cheaper to buy outside Singapore, like JB, Bangkok, Manila, etc.?

My pair snapped after 1 year plus. Then when i wanna replace the frame the model was discontinued so the snap on became useless thereafter.
Also din like the additional weight of the snap, especially since my plastic frame is already quite heavy with my lens being quite thick even at 1.74. Also did not like the reflection of the snap lens on my vision when i'm out in the sun...

Hi all, may i know which brand lens are more scratch resistant?

Best in market so far is Hoya HVLL

 

[londonbowler]

All optical shops who are good just buy Hoya, Zeiss or Essilor lenses right? Any quality or price difference among these 3 market leaders or different optical shops?

Is it right that Owndays lenses are slightly less clear and you would still prefer the top lenses if your grade is higher?

 

[Cedric7]

Best in market so far is Hoya HVLL

Can this be added on with their sensity?

 

[Optometrist]

Can this be added on with their sensity?

Sensity is the lens material, HVLL is the coating.

You can choose to change the coating to Full Control or Sensity Shine
