I bought my first pair of eyeglasses 2 years ago at age 40. I probably needed glasses around age 36, but kept putting it off. Anyway, I was told I needed bi-focals because I can't read up close or some shit so I get the ones with no line and all. The frames I got were Bvlgari which were $400. The sales dude tells me ok if you want a thinner glass it's another $250. No glare? That's $200. Anyway final bill for my first pair of glasses $1,200. I didn't have insurance at the time. Good times. I still wear them, but the lens is scratched and I need new pair.
since they cost you $1200, you should try to get the scratches buffed out. They do that at some places
Yeah they tried to get me for the " No Glare " crap too ... when I was looking at a regular pair of glasses
I'm just near sighted and I get an exam every 2 years.. My eyes got better this year ... lol ( Not sure how, since all the fuking time I spend in front of a computer )
but yes, when you need both, distance & reading.. the cost for the Lens is more.
Like em, but like everything else, they're either lost or broken within 5 years. I do like the No Glare lenses, and think they're worth it, but they too start wearing off about 3-5 years and become worthless, quick. The no glare stay way cleaner and easier to clean them also for me though...
Well you basically pay for 5 pairs when you buy them anyways. Same with Oakleys...
I have 2 pairs. Great company. Ive had mine for 5+ years each. Broke an arm once. Scratched lenses before. Took them to Maui jim parts office and they pretty much gave me new glasses back for 0$. I didnt even have proof of purchase. Good quality glasses. Polarized lenses are worth the money.
