Kids Glasses - where do people go?

[Littlebluedot]

So my DC has a pair of prescription glasses from our local optician, she has broke them twice and is now on her third pair - each subsequent pair is £37 so I was wondering if anyone know any online opticians that would be cheaper?

Many thanks

Also looking for this!

Specsavers.

@TeenDivided specsavers are more expensive - in our local specsavers the cheapest pair are £65

Specsavers. We've never had to pay for our DC's frames and have had them replaced free of charge when broken too. What age are your DC?

Even ongoing with NHS voucher and 2for 1?
(DD2 has had glasses since 5, but didn't tend to break them however.)

Specsavers - they will replace the frames for free. We have to pay extra for replacement lenses as DC has their lenses thinned.

@BodyKeepingScore she is 6.

Tip. If when you change prescription you keep the same frames, then you can transfer lenses back to old frames if needed.

If she's six she's entitled to her lenses and frames free plus a free replacement if they break. If you choose designer ones you may have to pay a contribution towards the frames but specsavers have plenty of lovely ones that you won't have to pay a penny towards.

I always just got the free frames at that age. Not supposed to buy online for kids glasses; might even be illegal as they need to be fitted to the child's face properly.

We got to Vision Express and all the repairs are free if under 16 🙂
