Finally collected my Presbyopia Glasses that was being delivered to Midas's place on 31/12/23.
Went JB on my birthday on 13/12/23 and we went to prescribe presbyopia glasses with progressive lens at Ooppa Optical (City Square Mall) cos yes, it's a relatively cheaper due to the exchange rate.
Thus, I got myself 2 pairs!
They also throw in an extra casing & the screwdriver & extra nose pad if in any case that there is a need to replace the nose pad
First pair is from (0 to +1.75)
Metal frame with Hoya lens
Reason for (0 to +1.75) power is due to me wearing contact lens due to short sightedness. Cos with contact lens, I can see things that's far but not near. With this, I can see both far & near. Thus, this pair is mainly for work or when I'm reading food menu when I'm out
Second pair of from (-3.75 to +1.75)
Plastic frame & Hoya lens
Reason for (-3.75 to +1.75) is also due to short sightedness. As I don't wear contact lens at home, I can see what's near but can't see what's far! Thus, with this pair, i can see both far & near. No need to keep removing my home glasses to see things that's near & put on when I wanna see anything that's far.2nd pair of lens is at 50% off (same power), but the guys at Ooppa kindly extend the offer to me even though my 2pair was of different power due to my special case. They're also having a promotion of one-for-one on frames.
I can't really remember the breakdown of the cost, but I paid $504 for 2 pairs of presbyopia glasses with Hoya progressive lens + 4 boxes (15 days/ box) of daily disposable colored lens while I paid S$398 for 1 pair of presbyopia glasses with normal progressive lens in 2022 at Owndays
As Carol also prescribed 2 pairs & got it delivered to Midas's place, I also pick it up for her at the same time.
