Does kwong shin still sell oakley prescription glasses ? or only sunglasses ? My fren told me he only saw sunglasses at the shop recently.


Defintely yes - prescription glasses still available. I made 2 pairs recently - end of 2010.

Go on a weekday as it is madness on Sat.

Hi, anyone know where to get spectacles with small frames? I have a small head so normal spectacles look freaky on me...

I'm a girl btw.

Tag are expensive...but they are very light. Good for those who tends to have a headache easily when wearing heavy specs.

bardsmanship : Look for frame size between 47-51 (not larger), distance between frames (or bridge length) between 15-17 and temple length no longer than 135. That should hopefully make your hunt easier ....

Learn your size range, and it will help you filter out what you don't want ....

tag heueur comfort = 100 percent. very lightweight and unique.
price wise.... a little pricey but can last a long way.

Not really, after some time, you'll be able to judge/agar, just by looking at the frame, whether it'll suit you. :)
