Popular Post Negita43 Posted February 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2022 Years ago in the UK there used to be a place where you could send your old glasses (prescription change) for recycling to poorer nations - anything like that exist here in Thailand - I have a few pairs accumulated over the years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthainess Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I pay 50b for my glasses and they are making a profit on that. admitted they are only plastic but, recycling old glasses to poorer nations seems a waste of time and money when they could possibly could just send new ones, i'm guessing buying in bulk are only about 25b a pair. Some foundations/charities just waste money on staff, admin etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
