Silverfox11 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Hello I am new to the forum and apologies if this topic has been covered previously. If any of the members could recommend a reliable optician, preferably in the central Pattaya area, this would be of great assistance to me. I am staying in Pattaya for a short break at the beginning of July and am in desperate need for new perscription specs. If anyone has any info or a direction to a previous thread on the same subject I would very much appreciate the assist. Thank you in advance guys.

Good service there. Good service at First Optic as well. Make your choice and be done with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddog Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Price comes into this too, pound for pound First Optic wins hands down. probably HOYA lens will be fitted First Optic were at least 40% cheaper than next nearest rival, (survey some time ago.) All you can do, choose frame, choose lens (thin ones) spend 50 baht on taxi bike, visit both, get price on the two, ,...First Optic will virtually be 'buy one, get one free' comparing shop to shop, quality to quality 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The request for good opticians is a regular feature on this forum and every recent thread comes up with First Optic and Euro Optic. Both are good. You queried her qualifications as stated by a member which was subsequently confirmed as being the qualification displayed on their FB page. I have used her services twice, never had to question her qualifications or professionalism and never had an issue. What is your problem? Do you even wear bloody glasses? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A poster stated that she was a Doctor - that's pretty uncommon in a shop selling glasses. I asked a question about it and it was answered. I never had a problem with any of it, only your suggestions regarding what I should or shouldn't do. Understand? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
