What is the cheapest place to buy crizal / some scratch resistant lens? I need one for my superdry frame but I just bought a $90 pair for my ray bans so I'm a bit broke now...

Also, is there any place to get ray bans fixed? When I brought it to the shop to replace the lens, the shop uncle said that he can't even repair it alr... its a bit awkwardly shaped now causing the frame to dig onto my ear, which is very painful

Anyone know where to prescribe a digital lens? I need to stare at computer and devices for more than 12hrs a day and the recent year, I found my vision to be very blurred and have red eyes. Would like to get a digital lens eyewear before I go blind.

Does digital lens have degree or is it better to go for a lens that is solely used for staring at computer? Thanks.

Most shops have that. Just ask for pc lenses. To change the lens only should cost $130 to $200. Owndays selling $ 198

Thanks bro! By the way I've stopped wearing a specs since primary school. Can I ask the optician to choose a frame and lens size according to my face shape? Not sure if they have this kind of fashion advice for their customer...

Ok spectacle hut quote me $170 for a PC lens. The person said computer eye measurement is usually higher than a manual measurement. So if my astig 250, it is actually 200?

I see i see, thanks. I'm just worried that my astig is still over 200 after their test, but I already decided to get the less than 200 lens. Cos for spectacle hut, their astig > 200 lens cost $70 more...then it is out of my budget already.

bro, i advise and strongly urge you to spend more to get the correct degree. there are basic lenses which cost below 100 which can fit your astig.
i hope you consider again to do the correct degree. your eyes is more important than your money!
