Can someone tell me where to buy cheap varifocals from as My current glasses are no good anymore and the prescription needs to be updated. I would prefer to use my own frame and my budget limit is around £140 but I need good lenses not the crap that you get at Tesco or Specsavers. My last pair cost me £350 but I'm in between jobs at the moment so I need quality but at a low price.

I got mine from here who are an online glasses retailer based in Surrey, UK. It was some time ago when I purchased them but they seem to have a good reputation on this forum and on moneysavingexpert which is how I heard about them. I bought a pair of Varilux Physio varifocals which are brilliant, much better than my old pair, they cost me about half of what my Optician was trying to charge me.

one day, one way, somehow..

I bought my eyeglasses from online stores. Maybe you can search the words
“cheap varifocals” in google, and then look for a suitable store according to
its reviews. Usually the price of online stores is cheaper than local stores.
The quality is great and ordering process is very easy. Hope it can help you.

Is buying cheap varifocals bad your vision? I was told by an optician that if you bought cheap varifocal lenses then it could have a really bad effect on what you see through the lens. Can anyone confirm if this is true or was he just trying to get more money out. of me.

The first ever pair of varifocals I bought were from Specsavers which were fairly cheap (£100) and I returned them after 2 Weeks as they made me feel sick every time I turned my head. I went back to having 2 pairs after that as the whole experience put me off.

 

2 years later I went into an independant opticians and he talked me into a very expensive pair of varifiocals made by Varilux. They cost me nearly £350 but they were a million times better than the cheap ones from Specsavers. I could turn my head and not feel sick and the vision was so much clearer. I have now been wearing these lenses for 8 years. So you see, it pays to get a good pair if you want them to work properly.

I buy my varifocals from OnlineGlassesDirect as they are the only opticians online that supply my lenses (Hoya). They are around £200 cheaper than what the opticians charge in my area (Manchester, UK). At least with buying them online I can afford a great pair of varifocals without all the nasty blurring and wavyness on the sides. If I went to my local opticians, I would only get a half decent lens for that price.
