Hi all,

Just happen to find out this forum.
Recently I just got my Crizal A2(Sfsv Azio Airwear) 1.6 index reading lens(1.25) for $280 + $150 for levis frame.
Thought I already kanna chop chai tao, since I read most ppls from the forum got less than $230 for Crizal lens.

Forgot to mention it is rimless frame for the lens.

Price is alright la. I think you are using the impact resistant lenses. Quite reasonable price already la. Come on you are paying for technology, quality and most importantly health care. Not some mic stuff

Yup, its Crizal A2 with all resistance(scratch,impact,dust,water,etc) features as advertise on tv.
Lens very sharp & ultra clear with very fine details.
Could see the difference in superb clarity comparing to normal lens.
With the lens now I can see very fine details which I would never saw things before!
Think I may consider Seiko Synergy lens after my Presbyopia getting stabilize few years later.

haha
this is a wrong idea people have. Presbyopia would stabilise but that would take a long time. As long as you are above the age of 40. It would be highly likely that you would need a reading aid. Approx, every 3-5 years or so, this prescription becomes too "weak" for doing near work. this Amount of presbyopia would increase, till up to +3.00 at the age of around 60-70. long way to go dude. dun torture yourself. If you need it get it. dont wait.

Thinks for the input. Thinking of changing lenses even thought my current pair less than a year old. I'm hoping to get something that doesn't scratch so easily.

Mine already have some hairline scratches!!!!!

Hi all. I'm looking for a spectacle frame without any degree, basically its for presentation becos I have to do regular presentation and i dun want the audience to spot my baggy eyes(from lack of sleep).

Any formal yet stylish looking frame to recommend, or any place to shop for?

Anyone know where I can get Ray-Ban optical spectacles, specifically the Wayfarers? Went to 313 and Orchard Central, but they only seem to sell the sunglasses.
