Do you mind if I ask where you spent $250 online for prescription sunglasses? Did that price include designer frames?
I got two pairs of prescription sunglasses from firmoo [1] for about $25 during a promotion. I am currently considering buying a new pair from a different merchant at a regular price of $30-$40 depending on frames, perhaps double that if I spring for polarizing lenses.
Dropping $250 for prescription sunglasses seems extremely expensive, unless you chose and value branded designer frames.

- ValentineC 13y agoI just tried ordering a pair of eyeglasses from Firmoo myself. The pair of frames (with the default 1.50-index lenses) was $39. Adding on the Ultra Thin (1.67), UV and fingerprint-resistant coatings brought it up to a whopping $106.90 (better lenses cost an additional $67.90). A comparable pair at SelectSpecs [1] cost $54.33, of which $40.75 was for the 1.67 index option. Seems like eyeglass stores make the bulk of their revenues (unsurprisingly) from lens customisations these days. [1] http://selectspecs.com http://selectspecs.com
