23962323 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Just bought some new varifocals today. Lens 6k, frame 2k, total 8kbht, computer driven lazer eye testing ..... no reading from charts. Not in Pattaya though. You will get a better dealt at that First Optic shop than quoted here Its pointless asking specifics,you get the frame you like,the extras mostly glare plating or whatever percentage darkening from top of lens to bottom or light sensing,it will be well under 7000,was 6000 last pair ,but prices unforgivably go up,he can be bargained down too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luudee Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Based on the feedback in this thread, I went to First Optic yesterday. Brought my 11 year old daughter as well, she was complaining about head/eye aches when reading a lot .... The guy was very nice, checked out my daughter, said her eye sight was just slightly off. To my surprise, when I asked him if she should get glasses he suggested to wait, and use simple eye tear drops instead. He could have easily sold me a pair of glasses for my daughter but he instead suggest whet he thought was the better way for her. I needed new reading glasses. Broke mine. I'm the guy who usually gets my glasses done in Phnom Penh. I do annual trips and get decent quality glasses for $40 USD all inclusive, with the standard UV/anti- reflection/scratch resist and "handsome man" frame, lol .... Anyway, this guy gave me a checkup, showed me some frames, I explained reading glasses only, just cheap sturdy frame ... 2,000 baht all inclusive ! I didn't even bother to bargain, considering hes choice of recommendation for my daughter. He has one hour service, I opted for next day pick up, was easier for me. Picked them up today, typing this with my new glasses. 100% perfect - very satisfied ! Overall, for Thailand, I think that's a great deal. He also asked if I had old frames, he was willing to use those. Next time ! Very decent guy I must say, very untypical attitude. I told him I came because of internet recommendation. He just smiled. Will definitely use again. Very happy customer ! Cheers, luudee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
