ohh, haha.

did a re-test, funny leh.. my short sighted dropped a little but got a little shan guang now.

i think maybe becos im 300+ , the current lens i dint even go for thin lens..

For 300+ power, for 1.6 index the lens make come out very swee one. 300+ power quite low. If you ever wear plastic frames, 1.56 index lens is enough to make it very swee aready!

Well I don't. Hmm how high is your degree? Your lens must be pretty heavy for it to slide.

actually not really, mine is around 150+.
the lens seems pretty slick and not too thick though. bt i do have an oily face so the rubber nose pad tends to get slippery...

the frame didn't fit.

 

[tpmmark]

thanks for the advice again DaRkXiDe, nike frame. will go shops to have a look later noon. i saw their frame b4, quite sporty imo. and light too, their titanium frame.
atypical, im not too sure, maybe its time to change a nose pad, or just get a hook at the temple back to hook it to my ears... swiss flex is light and comfy, bt the sliding dwn is a damm turn off..

Hoya lens is expensive. Hmm not too sure about the price tho! If you're going for Hoya, go for their SFT coat. Heard it's better.
