www.goggles4u.com is very good. I've just bought a pair of single vision eyeglasses for less than USD$25 and that included free tints, lens coating and shipping. Only reason i uses them initially was because I got sent a discount code ( lookgreat45 ) but I'll use them again ( repeat orders get another 15% discount! )

You can save an extra 5% on your entire purchase from www.Goggles4u.com when you enter the promo code “arcaro” at the checkout.

to Ira: I liked this comment from a blog that linked to yours

“here in England I buy reading glasses in bulk - well six pairs at a time anyway - from what we call ‘Pound Shops’ where everything is (you guessed it) £1 - that’d be under $2 to you lot. I treat them as disposable and they are every bit as good as expensive prescription glasses”

This is exactly my attitude. Eyeglasses is an instrument to make you see better.

I moved the discussion over to http://glassyeyes.com when it became apparent that other people wanted to eat and pay their mortgages rather than pay exorbitant prices for eyeglasses.

I never imagined the stir this would cause — and I’m happy it did.

Thanks for the kind words.

It’s no secret if you ask an optometrist friend — they get most their revenue from selling frames :O

Not to mention that you actually save more money by looking after your eyes
