QUOTE(debonairs91 @ Dec 27 2023, 09:05 AM) 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. if bodo is your standard then no choice.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 just speaking based on my experience changed so many times, just couple of days tops can get my specs. the quickest was, today buat, esok siap JimbeamofNRT liked this post

QUOTE(DatoChin @ Dec 27 2023, 10:07 AM) Selling blue lens is one of the common upscale tactics to earn more profit. When the public are more informed on the blue light scam... they can fallback on "relax" lense to continue earn extra chunk of 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. |

These are the glasses i have experience with.Most probably ts got astig or power outside normal range or the shop introduce transition lens to ts.

Since my exp with Essilor i avoid the brand plus all these gimmick things they want to put into the glass. When I was a teen and needed spectacles every 1-2 years.... "relaxing" should be the core/expected feature in all the spectacles made/purchased. It took few days to get used to and relax with a new pair. if still not relaxed after wearing them... then obviously they are made wrong.My only glass go to Zeiss drive safe period. Now they are peddling "relax" as a SPECIAL FEATURE to top up $$$ to get. its getting ridiculous . This post has been edited by alanyuppie: Dec 27 2023, 09:27 AM JimbeamofNRT liked this post

QUOTE(alanyuppie @ Dec 27 2023, 09:15 AM) The lens are marked up tremendously in case made wrong, they can still gain handsome profit margins by producing a replacement. luckily uncle cheapskate never took special lens b4. it's quite pricey imo.blue light danger / filter already debunked as marketing tactics. |

I'm really curious how much a spec actually cost. from zaman dulu-dulu they already said that spectacles shop mark up a LOT is a very profitable business. how much a lot is that be?
