When I got dd prescription sunglasses I got them for £20 as a second pair (we got her normal glasses from the same shop).

we were with dollond and aitchison but switched to a small independent optician as they didnt charge to thin dd's lenses whereas the bigger one did (saved £20!). Ask in the shop you get your dd's current glasses from as they will have her prescription on file and may be able to do you a deal.
