Speedo Prescription Glasses

Hubby decided to wear prescription glasses because of his blurred eyesight. We leave tami on the inflatable playground in the activity center of MOA. We know that its safe to leave her there because there are attendants that will look for the children and you are also required to leave your cellphone number just in case your child will look for you.

We went to Ideal Vision and EO optical. We chose to buy his glasses at EO because they offer a 0% interest installment plan for 6 months. Hubby tried a lot of glasses, his first choice was the Oakley glasses but the one he chose was too small for his face and he dont like the other designs. He also tried Burberry, Giorgio Armani and the last is the Speedo. I like the Speedo amongst other because of the design and its rimless. The price is not too bad at P7,380.00 for frame only, additional cost for the lens. He chose the color blue.



While hubby undergoes eye grade check-up, i was looking for sunglasses but unfortunately, the one that i like was not allowed to put some grade because the lens was not flat. I just waited a couple of minutes for hubby. We learned that he has a grade of 100 for his right eye and 75 for his left eye, he also has astigmatism that makes his eye sore.

We talked to the attendant and i requested for the lens that has radiation protector because of his work and he's in front of the computer all the time. I also said that i want the transition lens for him. Transition lens has 2 colors, its clear when you're inside and when you're under the sun the lens became gray or brown so it makes double-purpose. Transition lens is more expensive compare to ordinary. The price of the ordinary lens is P1,950 and the transition lens is P2,500. Since its only 550.00 difference, hubby agreed to have the transition lens.

The original lens of the Speedo frame

With the years that i have my glasses, it never happened to me that the original lens of the frame that i bought was given to me and with hubby's case EO optical gave him the original lens together with the package that we bought.

When hubby wear his glasses, he looked so genius..haha.. Since his glasses is rimless, its not really obvious that he has glasses.
