I need glasses

I've jsut had an eye test at Donald & Aitchinson (free, of course!) and i need glasses...their glasses are waaaayyyy too expensive (although the Givenchy ones were very nice)

whats the best deal about at the moment? I don't want them to be "cheap" cheap, otherwise i'll end up buying them twice or three times, but i dont want to pay too much!

Approx £100 is my budget!
I have learnt from my in-debt days....never again!

    Have you looked at the selectspecs.com website? Some are £5 and very good, even though they take upto 3 weeks to be delivered.

  • Probably best to try some on in a shop before you buy online, quite easy to just try them on then say you'll come back. That way you will find out what suits you and what size is the most comfortable - the size is on on of the arms.

    I bought my last pair from Specsavers as they were my first pair of varifocals, and I have to say they are very good quality.
