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.

Cheers, thought as much but just wanted to check before I went in.

With regard to the frame sizes, the frames I'll most likely be buying seem to be fairly thin. If that's not the case I may take my prescription elsewhere, provided I can find an Indy that does the anti-glare stuff.

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.
Thanks.

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