I have a current prescription and need some transitions glasses - where do people recommend?

I’ve used Glasses Direct for over 10 years. Never had any issues and they almost always have a discount or deal on. My current pair are transitions and work well (had them 1.5 years now). For reference at the time I bought them, with designer frames, anti scratch, UV protection and transitions, it cost £150. Could be cheaper sometimes or free second pair, depends on the offers available.

Forgot to add, you can also do home trials, they send plain lens glasses of your choosing (usually up to 4 pairs per trial) for you to see how you like them, if you’re not sure what you want, then you post them back.

I like Zenni Optical. Very quick, and very detailed measurements. Alternatively, I buy from TK Maxx in a style I like and use a guy on ebay put the prescribed lenses in. He's never failed me yet! He's so well priced, incredibly quick and honestly I'd never have though to look for this on ebay!

Great tips, thank you! I got advertised to on fb by one company with a great offer on but I don’t love any of the frames!

ASOS have some nice clear lens Ray Bans on offer so I will look at the eBay link :)
