bbi1 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Does anyone know roughly how much and where is a good place to get new sunglasses lens put in? Ones that provide 100% UV protection? Mine are super scratched already and need either replacing or buying a new pair of sunnies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 You could go ask at First optic https://www.google.com/maps/@12.9208123,100.8784544,3a,66.8y,208.6h,90.12t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sGKzrOf_HyqWBCayQ6RV73w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 but maybe just buy a new pair...unless they are super expensive "designer frames" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Most opticians should be able to do it. Can even have prescriptions lenses put in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilotman Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) I tired to get a replacement lens for my very expensive Ray Bans, I gave up in the end, one because matching them seemed to present enormous problems for the repairer, but the cost was half the cost of the whole frame and two lenses. gave up and put up with the scratches. Good luck with your attempt. Edited June 14, 2019 by Pilotman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it's recommended to get new sunglasses every year or two because the UV protection on the lenses become useless after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaiLai Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I paid about 1500baht at one of the optical shops, UV protective, i thought this was reasonable. I think in Tukcom, a few years ago now tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGW Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Guess that not many on here buy into the fact that sunlight is beneficial (in moderation) ???? The sunscreen, sun-glass industries, massive as they are, have run a great "advertising" campaign for many years convincing people that the sun is bad! Sunlight is required to lead a healthy life ????.................................................................. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is wholly unhealthy and dangerous to subject eyes to bright sunlight. The very high rate of cataracts and sun induced blindness in sunny climates tells it all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgdanson Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Look online at Zenni.com. I just got progressive lenses in decent frames for Bht 1800. Come from Hong Kong, took 8 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boit Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 On Pattaya Klang, 150 meters East of 2nd Road on the left (North) side of the road is an optical shop. It is 2 doors East of another optical shop, and across the street from a Top Charoen. About B500 for all lenses in 1 pair of glasses (mine has 4). I believe the name is - Pattaya Optical . Perhaps barter if they seem to arbitrarily ask for 200 + more. Easier to negotiate if you take 2+ pairs for repair. Good fit, 100% UV. I told them Dr. Jefri sent me and they opened the door.
