I use Glassesdirect and have varifocals from them. I had the best varifocal lenses they had to offer as there is different quality and options available. I paid £135 in the sale and also you can find discount codes online. I have used them several times and they provide a great service imo.

Spec savers should have given you a little card with your prescription on it. I have both contacts and glasses through them and I got my little card a few weeks ago when I went for my test.

Yet , meanwhile the damage continues undetected.

 

[johnny bravo]

Thanks guys

Yet , meanwhile the damage continues undetected.

Yes that's what I was told by specsavers as I was using them to read but then when looking up at distance was a struggle as they only designed for reading at arms length

? Specsavers gave me a prescription +1.75, then the guy pointed me in the direction of some rather expensive 1.75's lol.
Not sure what the difference is other than the price?

They would say that

..anyway I seen these varifocal lenses on glasses direct..they are the top of the range ones...with the frame come to about £120 with discount code...they tick all the boxes in the range...I'm a postman so I'm.assuming they be perfect for my job..wot u guys think.?

I can definitely recommend glasses direct as my wife and I have used them on many occasions. They also have 120 day return option if you’re not happy.
Have you used varifocals as some don’t get on with them. I wouldn’t be without them tbh. I was going to get the operation done where they remove your lenses and put artificial lenses in but I bottled it as I didn’t want to mess about with my eyes to be honest and it was £7000

 

[coathanger57]

varifocals are for near and far sight, as you can see distance you would only need glasses for reading.

I don't see a problem here...





I'll get my coat...
