I have surveyed several on line suppliers of prescription spectacles and
found that most seem to use a similar web page arrangement and source the
ordered item from the US, although through a UK office. This web page
ordering system is very simple and is heavily biased to making a sale at
all costs. The short comings are that they only have a certain number of
frame fitting sizes and in order to get exactly what I want is impossible.

I ordered some £30 prescription rimless reading glasses which were quite
well made, but because I could not get a 16mm nose bridge my eye pupils
were not in the centre of the 50mm wide lenses.

The other problem is reviewing a chosen specification held in the 'Basket'
ready for purchase. I can't remember if I had decided on transition lenses
for the varifocals or not, but there no way to know. Opening the basket
just shows the PP logo.

Never had any problem with Zenni. But I have a very simple prescription.
