You’re always in your shop or need to inform you earlier to get LYN discount?

Relax lens are truly helpful. My eyes no longer stressed out with it.

I look at computer all day at work, my previous lens (or glasses) not giving me this comfort.

I paid 1.1k.

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.

that's not fearmongering la. I mean to say u use ur eyes 100% of them time as u awake. Why would u want to bicker about the price, moreoever the difference is merely 1k. Meanwhile ppl buy car 60k-150k.

Ask urself this. What car u driving now? Why not get a second hand kancil? Ur decision governed by "fear" ? no right? Then why would u think spending more on specs is because of fearmongering?

salesmen love ppl thinking like u. that's why many waterfish out there kana chopped alive.

every wonder how come some shop can afford to pay rm25K and above per month at the mall for many years just by selling spectacles?

---

the thinner and the thick one COST THE SAME if you order direct from alibaba , only that they know ppl want thinner one because it is lighter.

1.74 thicker
1.61 thin
1.56 thinner

only US$0.50 PER PAIR IF u purchase more than 500 pairs
$5 for 1 pair

Maximum order quantity: 10 pair
Sample price:
US$5.00/pair

what makes you think your so called korean lens is made in south korea ?

nowadays they are made from polycarbonate and resin, lightest and most comfortable lenses.

cheap,durable materials

Of coz less than a week. But they will still quote you 1-2 weeks just to be safe. Especially end year with lots of holidays like this. Their lead time will be the same coz in the end they all send to the same factory to fit in the lenses
*
those shops who say need 1-2 weeks to get it cut memang scam

30 minutes is normal these days

just educate yourself not to be scam next time by these snaky salesmen

Multifocal. When I changed my specs sometime early 2022, Hoya was still more expensive than Essilor.

Few years before, they promoted Essilor a lot, went back after COVID, the amoi was neutral.
While Focus Point used to promote Hoya a lot, now dunno

yearly target .... u know right....
so they can get higher commision

Like i said lor. Its like buying car. In the end also its just a transport. The way i see it, this specs kena potong or not also the price not differ much. At most 1k+ stuff. Let ppl earn whats wrong?

Just like buying BMW vs Myvi. Both also car. But if the sohai buyer take 10 years loan and installment is 50% salary then he is biggest sohai.

For specs actually so tiny the price, for me la. Not even 1% of what i make a year. Average my specs can last 3 years somemore. Why not just splurge on it. Those zeiss lense etc got effect or not subjective la. But the most important is no harm done. The time i spend order from taobao then go outside shop buy frame ask ppl use the lens i bought from taobao?!? Do i need to spend that much effort and time while i can throw $$$ kautim hassle free. Why would i go through all that really? Wtf. Next u going to buy cement and build your own house cos scare developer potong u? Lol
