Hello

 

Has anyone used Specsavers Elite progressives lens and how did you find them and do you know what they are are?

 

I ask as they are $350 and I have been quoted between $700-$800 for high end progressives lens elsewhere

Handsomedan:

 

This would be a good idea for me, if I can get something that works...but for Mountain Biking in summer (dust prevention). 

 

Bike Park with full face helmet and goggles, makes for very uncomfortable spectacle-wearing, or I just go without glasses and end up with a headache after about 3 runs. 

 

 

I expect they would be a massive improvement.

 

Go to the appointment at SS with your AA number (or if with Southern Cross Health go to OPSM I think) for a free trial. They measure your eyes, teach you how to install and remove them, and send you off with two packs of 5 contact lenses to try.

 

I find the daily disposables a bit challenging to put in and more challenging to pluck out, but get there with a bit of perseverance. With my Mr Magoo +4.5 prescription the optometrist warned me the lenses were on the thickish side but I can't feel them at all once in.
