i noe my size la. I just want to find the best possible existing brand frame, thats all.

Best in everything, meaning in terms of the fitting, grip, comfort, flexible yet rigid enough with strength, design, weight etc

Best possible existing brand means most expensive mos expensive means best lol:s13:

Is the condition of the specs still good? i realise that old specs are of better quality than the ones made nowadays, whether branded or not branded. :(

Well, it's plastic. The only thing i dun really like is the side that goes behind your ears, they're not parallel. Other than that, it's really not too bad ;)

haha do u mean that your ears are not parallel thats why the frame follows ur ears after prolonged wear.

Juz want to share my experience bought this IC! berlin reionization as my last specs oakley evade spoil after playing with my 2year toddler son. He accidently bang into my specs and the screw thread of the frame become bigger until now i cant screw the lens to the frame btw this is not the first time it happen.... I send back repair once then recently it happen again but found out i lost my warranty card. haiz...

Then I happen to found this IC! berlin, Really like the design and build for this specs as this doesnt come with any screw. No more headache to worry about loose screw. And best no more worry when i am playing with my son as the build of the specs quite steady. It can almost bend 180degree into a flat specs without damaging the frame.

Best of all i bought this specs from a bro here, i did some research and i think he give quite a good price for it!!!

Thks Bro aldric!!!

This is true. Many people who suffer from high astig will experience some sort of "swimming effect" with only a small change of 0.25D of astig. So just relax and try to adapt. Don't be so anxious that u want to complain about ur optometrist/optician. This is very normal.

If I use my computer WITH or WITHOUT glasses my vision CAN suddenly become blurry. Takes a while to recover to 'normal' vision. Generally, if I spend the whole day away from computer or books vision is okay.

Got prescription can fix this? Very troublesome leh, have to squint when vision blurs.

Nope. Well, as in when you open up the specs, the ear part should be around a 90 deg with the frame when seen from the top, but they are slanted in. I'll take a picture and PM you arnd thurs, maybe you could help me out with this issue? :D

Very hard to do it for his case. The purpose of sunglasses is to block uv rays that's why its built so big so as to cover all the way to the sides. With his prescription, making a sunglass with prescription would have a very thick edge thickness. He can consider contact lenses with sunglasses. Or small framed sunglasses. However there is no point making a sunglass with a small frame.

There are some sunglasses with inset lenses. Consider those?

Just got my Oakley Whisker 6B with Crizal lenses. This is the first time I'm wearing Oakleys and my eyes are aching from the curvature of the lens...it's like I put on lens that are too powerful for me (I did increase 25deg each side according to the eye test) and there's such weird distortion at the edges especially.

Is this normal? And how long does it last? I'm worried about driving in it...

this can be due to fatigue. aka computer vision syndrome. go to your optometrist. they would check your eyes for any other problems before they prescribe you with "computer lenses". Prescription to relieve your muscles from being too tensed up. Go get your eyes checked.

Sorry to bother but can anyone recommend a nice wide frame (yeah bandwagon i know) that can somehow suit a small face.
