Hello,

I need some glasses urgently for intermediate/reading. I've left the ordering a bit late and local optician (specsaves, visionxpress) told me glasses would take 7-14 days and I need them THIS WEEK at the latest.

My prescription is relatively simple and I need them for computer use so would be:-

     Sph   Cyl     Axis

R  3.00  -0.50  100
L   4.50  -1.25  150

Lens would be 1.6 in cheapish plastic frames (not sure if I should go for 1.67 here but hope 1.6 will be OK for this prescription and not look like jam jars with lenses sticking out of the frame!)

So far the cheapest I have found is:-

Dlrectsight  £45 (2-3 days delivery) or £60 (next day delivery

Specscart £50 for next day delivery

Nextdayspex, onlinesopticiansuk, shadestation, mojoglasses all are more expensive

DOES anyone know of any other opticians that could give me a cheaper price?
