How much is the most you've spent on glasses?

[HereComesEverybody]

I'm due an eye test next week & reckon I'll get some new frames.

I've seen some gorgeous ones which I'll think I'll get but I'll also try on a load of others before deciding.

It's going to cost £500+ with the lens

This seems like a lot but I wear them a lot & they're so visible that I want them to be really nice.

How much have you spent & are there any makes you particularly like

The ones I'm interested in are by https://anneetvalentin.com

Please share any you've have

Same here with varifocals at independent optician. Compared to friend who had ones not fitted properly at SS as I said in earlier post.

Indeed - hard to fathom even with that explanation 😂
Very interesting though that you noticed a stark difference

About 800 quid for Lindberg varifocals. That was a couple of years ago with a 20% discount through my John Lewis membership.

I notice that the discount is still available but now specifically excludes Lindberg frames.

Cost per wear with glasses innit.

It's frustrating because I get the frames vary a lot in price
But paying to see is fucking annoying! Especially when you can't afford to fork out for the higher quality lenses because it's 2 weeks wages so specsavers/asda or nothing it is

I wear mine daily. I love glasses and am happy to spend. Usually £1200-£1500 because I get top of the range varigocal lenses

I am trying to save up for a new pair(s). Although 2 for 1 at Specsavers sounds good, it all still adds up to around £500. I have lost a few pairs in the past so really must concentrate on keeping them safe! At the moment I have reading glasses which are not great, I can just about see to red and write/type.

I normalyl go for a slight cats eye style as I think it lifts the face (gives the illusion one hopes of the face sagging less). If I had a lot of money I would do a Prue Leith and have many colours but I normally stick to one colour and a tortoiseshell.

I tend to get the 2 for 1 specsavers. I've found the cheaper range (£90 and below) have the glasses frames I like - big and colourful plastic frames. But the cost of lenses shove it up to about £300 for two pairs.

Saying that, I've been looking at some of the links shared on this thread and I am so tempted to splurge next time I need glasses.
