I was planning on that its 2x the price but im ok with it if it was significant improvement but sadly no. After talking to the optician they said i will barely feel any difference between superb range and individual.

Is it plastic frame need to readjust often. My ray an frame keep slip off. Adjusted twice within 3months. Expensive n give slip off problem. Any recommend on Japan/Korean frame? Heard that is better.

No lar, bro ultimately its up to u. I just offer an idea to let u think about. So u confirm your japonism with zeiss? Have u tried hoya before? I just hope to get some feedback on hoya vs zeiss, wanna see the difference in clarity. If you can pls give sme feedback after u use your new spec?

The nose portion is the critical point. Plastic frame hardly able to adjust the nose part unless those frames with nosepads. Mostly plastic frames are either love or hate affair. Either it fits u or it dont so the choosing process v impt. If you chose a not-so-good fit, no matter hw many times u adjust oso not much use. As for the sides, normal plastic tend to deform more under heat so may splay out more often than metal frames so u need to go back often to optician to fine tune back for you.

Haha bro this is my first premium specks from the normal packageD frames and lens. And also army crizal lol. I most likely would go for individual lens since im already spending so much. Only thing is i need a shop which has zeiss profiler to do the best readings for zeiss individual sv...

 

[noobzpro]

K kwong shin only has auto refractor to do testing for individual. Or should i go to another outlet to do zeiss profiler take result go there do?
