if u referring to tinted lens aka "high index tinted" glass lens.. (used to compress e thickness of e plastic nerdy tick lens)..Originally posted by joelwinston2005:Do anyone here wear tinted spectacle? Which spectacle store did you go? How much does it cost?
den shd b price range of $150 - $200++ for e lens alone.
price varies according 2 e severity of ur shortsightedness..
Try Capitol Optical outlets ...4 their efficient service; friendly staff, reasonable pricing on quality lens n frames.
(i dun like wearing such glass lens as its heavy on e nose..leaves ugly marks near e bridges ...still prefer contact lens wen im out of hse..n e practitioner also confirmed dat wearing contact lens in actual fact aids in controling e degree of ur shortsightedness at a constant level..PROVEN!

YES. agree totally -
i cant seem to find a good optician. they don't really care abt the health of our eyes. they just want us to choose a pair of specs and pay quickly!

I broke one of the lens of my glasses abt a month ago.
was shocked when it happened. I was cleaning the lens with a soft cloth then suddenly heard a 'piak' sound.. my lens are made of plastic leh, how come will piak de? the next time i wipe again.. gone.. broke into two pieces.
some frens told me the optical shop that I made my glasses is no gd, some other optical shops I heard are no gd also.. so which one is gd??? Can anybody recommend? I need to make a new pair before sch starts. -
No all shops r like dat..maybe u can try goin to e more reputable ones like Nanyang Optical etc ...1 recommendation of a good n reliable optical shop is at Tampines Century Sq , Level 2 (e 1st optical shop u see after going up e escalator 2 2nd level.)Originally posted by sinicker:i cant seem to find a good optician. they don't really care abt the health of our eyes. they just want us to choose a pair of specs and pay quickly!
Did my specs dere, and had a very professional n accurate diagnosis by their boss personaly.
Their lens n frames are cheap n comfy too. Various designs to choose from if u not e extreme fussy type of buyer.

Plastic or glass lens will not break so easy de. Base on my 21yrs of wearing a specs, this is due to over tightening or uneven tightening of the lens. Loosen the two small little screws a bit. Hope my info helps.Originally posted by browniebaobao:I broke one of the lens of my glasses abt a month ago.

i went to VisionStyle behind tamp int. will only buy my contact lenses there but nvr specs. they sort of keep hurrying you. Nanyang Optical expensive or not?
my bro wud rather go to the opticians at the shophouses near Eunos MRT stn. these lackadaisical shops are much more cheaper than those at shopping malls. they're the heartlands type that receive much less customers and are more hospitable. -

U can try Nanyang Optical..its not as ex as others hav claimed..juz buy within ur means n budget n invest on a good set of lens and a mid-range priced kind of designer frames
(Note: designer does NOT mean branded, it can be a durable n cool-lookin frame but minus e brandame which made it more ex than e rest)
try ur luck @ tampines century sq or tamp mall...the products less costly than their sister outlets in town area, i heard.
cheers -
