Cheap glasses from UK or abroad - MSE page out of date

Options
Hi,

I want to order some spare pairs of glasses as I paid quite a bit for my current ones. I would like cheap ones and  I don't want mind waiting for them and hence they can be from abroad. Previously (back in 2013 days) I used goggles4u as they seemed GVFM, but don't know who the current players in the cheap glasses are.

I was looking at the page on cheap glasses on MSE but it was last updated in 2016 (https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/family/cheap-glasses/).

Who are supplying the cheapest glasses these days from UK or abroad for my spare pairs?

  • I’ve used glasses direct and specscart and they have both been very reasonable for spare pairs.

    I have used both, but they are still quite expensive as I need thinner (1.6) lenses which cost  approx £30 alone so a pair would be be approx £50.
