So last nite i bring my wife to change her spec

At first the salesgirl (cute cheeky amoi) said all spec frame in the cabinet are rm180

With lens that can change colour + protect from blue light will add rm200 so total for the spec will be rm380

Then another lady (mature awek tudung) bring my wife to do eyecheck and do some consultation and suddenly introduce a lense that can relax the eyes and the price shoot up to rm1200!!

So i said its ok, no need that lense, just proceed with the rm380

Then suddenly if i like to proceed with that, need to wait for 1-2 weeks for them to order

WTH??

Is this a normal practice? Bcoz now i realise like previous eyewear shop kinda do the same shit

Just go to Thoneh if you are around KL. I dont trust optometrist already.
Last time I went to one cause got free check, turns out my right eye power is 150 or something that i need glasses.
Next day went to Thoneh cause paranoid and want 2nd opinion. There they say my eyes power on 75 or something, basically its too low to start using glasses.

Last time when I was in secondary school, the optometrist wore low cutting.

When she help to put on glasses, hngghhh

Sekian cerita sejuk

just buy the very basic lens..no need fancy2..

normal people without spec ok jer without that fancy shit protection.

i go sungei wang bought 2 specs rm100 only, 1 hour siap.

I never had that experience at all.

Last time I changed my specs at OWL, Dr Specs and local shops near my house. I dont need to wait for so long

Hunakadoo opinion ?

skemmer punya kedai.
so many speks i changed. no raised till 1000+ before.
thinning of lens. blue kaler to protek against pc thingy.
then mid specs punya lens baru 200-300+
somemore i brought my own frame.
siap within 2 working days.

go other shop, there's alot of spec shop, i got mine like in 4 days even have alot order stacking up

nop... full of crap.. usually their own glass will be quick and cheap.. even RM200 is pretty expensive if it's a brandless glass.. meanwhile usually glasses like Zeiss it would take a couple of days cause they need to get the glasses from the distributor.

i need high index lenses cause very rabun one

Berapa consultancy rate

Bodo standard la 1-2 weeks. But most of the time it will be finished within 1 week. Optical shop only make money from their frame, very little markup on lenses.

Most probably ts got astig or power outside normal range or the shop introduce transition lens to ts. You want to pay extra for those features nothing stopping you but it's not a scam

Selling blue lens is one of the common upscale tactics to earn more profit.

Despite many push from the indsutry for researcher to produce a benefit report of blue lens. So far still no onclusive study thqt said blue lens help. So u can imagine how useless this upgrade other than give u blue tinted glasses.

As for lens that can relax. This is new to me. New scam? The wallet definitely not relax after hearing the price.

Nah bullshit.

If need wait 2-3 weeks liddat just go other shop.

Cikai Dr. Specs also can la.

ayam go cina shop aka pottglasses

I buy daiso +1.0 specs jer

Dah ckp brp kali, nak beli spec cari tu Hunakadoo or something along the line

The lens are marked up tremendously in case made wrong, they can still gain handsome profit margins by producing a replacement.


blue light danger / filter already debunked as marketing tactics.
