Why lenses in Cambodia so cheap comparing to Thailand ?

Featured Replies

Just stay 10 days in siem reap, today I ordered new lens, and wondering about the big price difference to Thailand , for exactly same brand essilor have also another called Osa

Same specifications uv light and scratch protection on top Charon I payed a year ago around 6500 baht!

In past I remember beautiful optic was cheaper!

But here in Cambodia only 34 dollar for a pair!

Standart lens offer for 9 dollar!

For me comparing to a eu lens

With a 10 time higher price

the bowing of glas surface not look identical !

But many online shops offer also pairs for 60€ , and import them from Asia , if it would be a fake , it's could not sale in the eu!

Sounds like a very good price.

Maybe I'll ride over to SR and have some of my old frames re-fitted.

How long does it take them to do the work?

Can you recommend a particular shop?

One of my few disappointments with the products and services available (when compared to cost and quality back in the West) is the countries Optical services.

Cr*ap glasses at inflated prices.

Maybe the dominance of one particular player who sets the price?

Very good fakes perhaps ?

As with so many products in this country.

Very easy to buy "on line" if the local price is beyond what you wish to pay .

Sure easy to buy online. There is a thread in the Pattaya forum where Phil Conners has posted his experience with easy buying lenses online. He's not the only one .

Some frames looks realy ugly!

In samui years ago the stuff of top chareaon needs 45 minutes to find one frame for me calling other branches!

My head was to big for the asian standards !

Travel cost to Cambodia +hotel cost +cost of fake lenses = cheap ?

Yea !

Sandman,

By chance, you notice if good quality sun glass is very expensive in Cambo like in Thailand?

How do you buy online for frames you already own?
