The Spectacles Thread.

Any solution for lenses for spec for high degree and astig, i have around 800+ myopia and 200 astig.. my spec look kinda geeky, if you what i meant due to the high degree.. any ways to make the lenses look less dense??

200 astig you call high ah? mine is 300+ leh that is call big problem, always i will get giddiness due to lens tilt & rotation.

Thanks In Advance

Had a walk around Bras Basah in the afternoon, and many shops keep pushing Crizal lens despite me telling them that I do not like Crizal due to its lousy multicoat.

I'm looking at Hoya lens but different shops came up with different pricings. I have checked through this whole thread and it seems that the price can be as little as 60 plus to high 500s for Hoya.

I understand that Hoya lens have quite a variety and I'm mainly looking for a something in the middle, since I have mid index lenses and I'm using full frame for my next 2 pairs of glasses frames and using mostly for indoor work and staring at the computer all day so I definitely do not see the need for any transition.

Is there any recommendation on what Hoya lens should I take? Budget hopefully about $100-130 for each pair since I'm doing 2 at one go. I don't think the SFT coating falls under that range from what I was recommended today.

hi atypical, too bad i dont really have the same kind of love for celluloid as you do but other than celluloid frames, what other things you have alot of love for?

hahahaha ... bro I have a lot of love for many other things. Spectacle frames wise, only celluloid.

Hoya 1.6 HVP should be around $150. One level below SFT.

Is this a good guide to the lenses of Hoya? I don't think all on the list are available in Singapore locally though, only some like the HVP and SFT. The PC Pro actually looks like a good to have since I'm working in a office environment. and I can probably opt for the SFT version for the other pair for outside activities.

Hi guys,

Is adjusting of glasses free?
I'm wearing an Oakley glasses bought from queenstown.
The nearest shop to me carrying Oakley specs is Capitol Optical (Causeway Point)
Traveling to queenstown to adjust my specs is not really wise as the distance is far. So not sure if they willing to adjust free for me..


Anyway , i'm using HOYA lens right now.. But dont know which type.

yes, very wrong. Giddy is one thing, but to the extent of feel like puking is damn serious, suggest you get help fast, otherwise got to stop wearing the new spec.

What do you think of the brand "DUN"? Have you heard of or seen it before?

 

[striker22]

Dun in my opinion looks bad on females.
