Prescription Glasses from Ideal Vision.... again!

When i woke up last Saturday from an afternoon nap, i found out that someone accidentally stepped on my glasses and the frame got dislocated. I hurriedly went to Ideal Vision in SM Southmall to get it fix. However, according to the opthalmologist, even if the frame gets fixed they still dont know if i will become comfortable wearing it again because it might broke from the tip where the glasses is connected. Another problem is if i leave my glasses to the shop, i need to wait for another week before i can wear it again because they need to bring it on their repair shop.

With that situation i decided to get a new glasses instead of waiting for another week because i cant work without my glasses. Did you know that i tried contact lenses? Yes i tried once but with my sensitive eyes, it gets red upon putting my contact lenses and its really itchy. After 2 days, i go back to glasses.

Anyway, Ideal Vision has become my fave shop since i wear prescription glasses. There are some reasons why i love Ideal Vision. First. there are lots of brands and designs to choose and Second is they accept 3 months installment in 0% interest. Isn't it great?

After choosing frame, the opthalmologist gets my grade. Grabe! kaya pala nasakit yung mata ko kasi my grade increased again. Kala ko magkakaron ako ng sore eyes, mali pala. 

Right Eye : From 200 to 250

Left Eye : From 350 to 375

Astigmatism : 50

After getting my grade and when its about time to pay the cashier gave me a P50 GC from Jollibee, free daw... hehe. Anyway, its still good to have it, at least kahit papano may free meal.

 

Maybe i got it after using my BDO credit card..

Buying prescription glasses takes at least an hour before you received it so while waiting i decided to use the free GC on Jollibee across the Ideal Vision.

My favorite Jolly Hotdog meal. I only add P30++ to get the meal.

And here's my new prescription glasses:

 

Its very similar to my MNG glasses.

COSTING:

Brand: BASS PhP1,900 from 3,250 (sale)

(i dont know if this is related to the BASS footwear pero parang ang layo eh... Eyes to foot. Sa tingin mo? hehe

Lens: Multi-coated P800 kasi daw mataas ang grade ko.

(badly needs for the computer radiation)

Add-on: Thin glasses P2,400

Total PhP 5,100 / 3mos = PhP 1,700

Keribels na no?

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.
