For my prescription it is impossible to buy over the internet, but my daughter wears glasses and had just had her eyes tested. She wanted a complete change of style and they would have set me back about 60 euros for the frame in the shops here. off her own bat she did an internet search and found just the pair she wanted.
The complete bill was 23 euros including postage. they took about 2 weeks to arrive, they are just what she wanted and no complaints from me either!

there is a full explanation on how to do the measurements.

I have recently bought some new glasses. I went to a new Opticians called Generale d'Optique.
I got 2 pairs for 99 euro. This includes frames and lenses. Also the 2nd pair I got was prescription sunglasses
Their slogan is "la fin des lunettes cheres"
I found them very helpful and they only took a week to make

On the same theme has anybody had a really good eye test here. 4 years ago I had mine tested in Argeles and was in and out in literally 5 or 10 mins whereas 2 years ago I had them done at Vision Express in England and had a thorough test of about 30 mins. It also bugs me that you have to go to one place for the test and another for the glasses. Is there anywhere that does it all under one roof with a thorough test?

I too would be interested to know the answer to that one, I have only once had an eye test here and was thoroughly dissapointed, I have been paying for private tests for myself and the girls in theUK ever since, but alas that will not be happening for us in the future.
A good full eye exam is a must, not just to see if I can read a number plate and then scrutinise a bottle of wine

I must admit that my test was free in the UK as I had just become an OAP. They werent meant to do it for some one living outside the UK (or so they said) but they did. I couldnt recommend the turban wearing gentleman at Vision Express, Kidderminster high enough for his pleasantness and efficiency. Very nice man. Wish I could find someone similar here. All other medical things here seem to exceed the UK but optical is a let down.

After the write up on the purchase of glasses on the internet I decided to give it a go. My lenses were fine but the frames had never fitted well. I sent in my order with prescription details and correct arm length to a firm called ExclusiveEyes on the 3rd March. Total cost including postage was £21. They arrived yesterday and are perfect in all respects. One satisfied customer.
