I got mine on AliExpress, titanium, lightweight, lenses with coating and anti-glare. $25 shipped. Got a second pair for about $32. I already had my eye exam paperwork and just sent them an image. It took about 4 weeks each time. Considering sun glasses next. Will be expensive, maybe $45!

The prescription I got at America's Choice, got the cheapest possible (maybe $50), but for $70 got two pairs of glasses (total cost with the prescription), but the quality was nowhere near that of the glasses from China.

And note: you can get even cheaper at AliExpress (under $20 lenses and frames). I just opted for a best seller that was slightly more to play it safe.



That's crazy! What did you search for on aliexpress? Were they poly carb lenses?


See my reply to xenhim


Could you please post a link to the vendor you used?


Handoer and EOOUOOE were the two brands I used. Basically I just searched for men's glasses and then looked for some models that already had many orders. Then I chatted a little with vendor to make sure I got the right lenses, and also give them my prescription.
