Specsavers Cost Query/Stupid Question Alert
Discussion
Evening All.
I've got an upcoming eye test and have been wondering about the pricing structure.
I should still be on single vision lenses; these are included in the price of the frames. According to their website, under "Complete Pricing" you only have to pay for the frames, the test(if you don't have a voucher/choose another offer) and any options you desire (where applicable re: offers).
My question is, is this fully true? Don't they charge for the actual prescription?
I'm quite short-sighted and what I'm going for will hopefully cost £94. It seems to good to be true.
TIA.

If that is the case, take a look at ASDA opticians. They include thinner lenses in the standard price for no extra charge if you need them. i.e. Price of glasses includes standard lenses up to -3, 1.60 lenses for -3 to -5, 1.67 for -5 to - 7, and 1.7 for -7 to -9.
Nope, it's true. It's what my wife pays. She waits for 2 4 1 offers and gets prescription sunglasses thrown in. £98 or thereabouts for 2 pairs recently.
Now I fall outside the standard definition having an astigmatism and verifocals. My specs cost me about £4/500 a pair but the 2 4 1 would still apply.

They all do the various coating, polaroid, anti reflection.
One note of warning though regarding Polaroid glasses. Sure they reduce some glare but they make it impossible to read the screen on any smart phone you may have or the digital bits of your dashboard.
Just saying.

I'm not getting the full polaroid ones, just the ones designed for night driving. I've never been a fan of dark lenses.
