Can I ask the price for the following high index glass lenses.

- 1.8
- 1.9

As my myopia is 1300 (r) and 1000 (l) and astigmatism around 400 - 450

which is the better option?

And for diameter of the spectacle frame, what are the limits for me?

Btw, should I opt for contact lens for my myopia and insert astigmatism as my lens for a slimmer look?

Please advise!

Sph is curved design.. Asp is flat design.. depends on ur frame, see which will match it better

If its a Optical frame, shouldn't be a problem

Not very good at glass cuz market demand getting alot lesser and lesser.

if Plastic, can try Tokai 1.76 Bi-Asp.

Its lighter den glass and less fragile BUT alot more expensive.

Depends on models. some are very very light. some are not really very light. Both brands have their strength and weakness, depends on where u scale which are more important for u.

Best is go to a shop and ask for info. If u like it, den purchase.

If u are commited, no harm asking for more details.

Hi,

I wanna make a set of spectacles meant for playing snooker. My current degree is left eye 75 and 100 for right eye. As my nose bridge is rather small or short as they call it, whenever i bend down to cue, my current spectacle would always slide down below my eye level.

May I know whether its possible to make a set of spectacles with lens as big as aviator sizing and also those that would " kiap " tight but not too tight on my nose bridge? Brandless or not, doesn't really matter much to me. I have a budget of $100 - $150.

Possible to make a set of spectacles as mentioned with that current budget? Recommendations of where to make and pricing would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

[squarepegs]

how can you tell if the lens is from hoya? any certificate or any marking on the lens?

thanks in advance.
