What type of lenses did they offer and what pricing? I needed my annual eye exam done anyway which is far more thorough than a vision test and my Dr knows my vision very well so I didn’t really want to do any different especially with progressive bifocals.
In the end my VSP was $477 for an exam with retinal scan plus Varilux XR (non customized), coatings included. But now I have 3 more weeks of nail biting hoping the lab doesn’t damage my new Masunaga frames.
Cost me $255 in Tokyo, I was quoted $800 for the same frames in Southern California
