Cost Of Lenses In High Street Stores/Independent Opticians
5 Answers
Duplicated in this section from How It Works:
I've bought a pair of designer specs on eBay but will obviously have to have my own prescription lenses fitted. They will be rimless which may or may not add to the expense but I was just wondering if anyone has ever done something similar and wanted a rough ballpark figure as to the cost.
I'll obviously shop around and ask for quotes but thought I'd get advice from this valuable resource first!
They would be single vision glasses, not varifocal.
Thanks in advance for any replies/tips/similar experiences.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I asked the same question myself at Specsavers last week - I had some SS prescription sunglasses frames which I broke on holiday in Santorini and urgently had to replace the frames at an opticians out there at a cost of 80 euros. They are Italian designer ones which I really love but SS made it as difficult as they could for me to have new lenses put in these. They said they would do it but if they broke they would not attempt to mend them as they weren't supplied there (fair enough I suppose) but the cost was prohibitive, not worth doing so I didn't go ahead but chose some from SS range which I don't like half as much.

See this thread I did ............. I'm about to have a meeting tomorrow with SS as I bitterly regret choosing the frames I did (my fault I know) but also they seem to have the prescription totally wrong.
