where to buy cheap specs?
-
1. get an eye test to check your degree and astigmism.. order frame and kens seperately from cheap source ( i read from internet this method one, dunno whether works in singapore or not)
2. Use my $50 voucher for nanyang optical but dunno whether it is a expensive shop or not? also must trade in old specs
3. or any cheap shop . i stay in sengkang i and guess hougang maybe will have at central... recommendation anyone? i read toa payoh, queensway got cheap cheap but not sure which shop and also not near my house...
hope to have some help ..thanks.

Lens price is still okay. Its the frame that usually add cost to the glasses. Like sgrean must have fashion sense mah. so frame must keep up with times. lens unless your case worsen or if your eye condition changes then need to chamge. if not lens is transferable to you can use the same frame sizes.

hi guys... updates
went to hougang central ,the one with hougang mall. I visited those specs shops at the shop houses area. There are 2 of them.. after asking the prices of specs for lenses of my case is as follow.
My degree=600 plus, i also got astimisgism, or 'shan guan', although i dunno whether they refer to the same thing.
According the the first shop, they have cheapest package of specs+lens at 38 dollars, but that is for 400 degrees and below. The guy told me that for my case the cheapest one is 80plus for those thick lenses... for thin lenses it is 110plus
For the second shops, morrison , a lady told me that it is 65 dollars for thick lenses, although i did not ask them whether 'shan guan' need to add more money or not. So their display got show 20 dollar frames, so i ask her total is it 65 + 20 and she says yes.
For thin lenses, she told me its 80plus, if i did not remember wrongly. Therefore, the 2 shops are roughly the same prices for my cases of 600-700 degree and 'shan guan'....
I do have a 50 dollar voucher for nanyang optical but i dunno whether it will be how expesnive and do they offer thick lenses....
What you guys suggest? any cheaper places?
Also, is thick lenses ok or not? i think it should be okay right, and not really that heavy because my main concern is to save money... although i am sometimes vain also...
-
thick lens is ok if u are choosing those plastic frames
thick lens is the norm and the cheapest
the thinner, the more asspensive -
go with budget. nexttime then upgrade fame.
meanwhile i think the nerdy girl with glasses fetishism is cooking up here hehehe
