hundreds of pounds) ; plus your lenses... (costing hundreds of
pounds); oh! and which special coatings would you like? Buying a
"special coating to protect against scratches?" Shouldn't that be
part of the bloody lenses?

Well, I got two pairs of plain specs (but with astigmatism correction)
for £70 all in from Specsavers. Like anything else you can upgrade to
what you feel you can afford.

Huh!
Now try and persuade them to reglaze your current pair!

I normally wear contact lenses so they were really just for emergency use.
But look OK with the standard frames. Of course if you want something
special it's going to cost more.
