No insurance. $600 including $100 more for somewhat 'designer' frames, progressive bifocals & auto-tinting sunglasses effect. I tend to avoid doctors, dentists & such and do not generally trust them. $600??? For a pair of glasses? Add opticians to your list. $600 is only a middle of the road pair of frames, and depending on types of lens you could easily ad an extra $200-300 if you go with bi-focal, photo grey, glass lens, anti-reflective coatings etc. Maybe in your hemisphere, but $600 is pretty steep in the US, especially for a very minor correction. I just assumed it was a California Price Special. Paid $425 for mine with all the goodies and titanium frames. -Jim Order a catalog from Hildago. You will save a bundle on your glasses..... I think I spelled it wrong.... here is their home page: http://www.hidalgos.com/ They are a high quality outfit, and their catalog contains lots of good information about eyeglasses. |
