Dave, that's what swayed me albeit I paid £1200 in total. Optimax in Bristol were (at the time) doing "walk in's" to fill vacant slots at a massively reduced price. They were also advertised on eBay which is how I picked mine up.Dave Barter wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 12:01 pmI'd pay that price for 10 years without themlune ranger wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 11:52 am Problem with laser treatment is that it’s a one off correction of a (in most cases) dynamic change in visual acuity.
It will stop working at some point and you will need glasses again.

Take a look at these for those who need bifocals

I can't see if they do a distance full lens cover though

Re: Cycling glasses... getting old
£1200 is actually quite attractive price wise, my last pair of glasses were £450, I need varifocals, I normally have the light weight finely graduate lenses, add reactive lenses and an anti scratch coating and your £125 frames with standard lenses are now really expensive. Due to this I normally keep them for longer than I should, I can’t see bugger all when it’s raining either.rufus748 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 2:46 pmDave, that's what swayed me albeit I paid £1200 in total.

Re: Cycling glasses... getting old
I've just got a pair of these and so far have only worn them when walking the dog to see how they feel. So far they are great, having never worn bifocals before and being new to any kind of glasses, I wasn't sure what to expect but by flicking my eyes down can read my phone screen and then looking up normally can see normally.
Thanks for the tip.
