OK, I’m having my eyes tested this afternoon. Since I got my last pair of specs (in 2004 or 2005!) my prescription has changed, but I’ve been waiting to know that I had enough money to buy some! So far I’ve only tried Specsavers and Tesco (who are giving away free sight-tests in their new branch in Winchester), and picked out the following, but I’m not sure any of them are quite right (and one of the other customers when I put my own on, said “ooo, they’re nice”…!!) – all do strange things to my face 🙂 Most stores are currently doing 2-4-1, but I really just want 1 pair, with a free upgrade to photochromatic – anyone know who might be doing that at the moment?
Which do you think are getting closest – which the worst – and excuse the expression on my face!

6 replies on “New Specs?”
Out of all the choices I like #11 and #13 best. 🙂
In order of preference, 8, 3 and 12.
Number 12
Today, I ordered No. 4 from Specsavers. They officially have the 2 4 1 offer on, but I said that I really wanted the free reactions lenses and couldn't be bothered to select another pair, made a movement of leaving, and next thing you know… I have free reactions. I don't need 2 pairs, and I'm trying to get rid of stuff I don't need 🙂
They suit you! Great choice! YAY
So glad you didn’t go for no. 10! Went to Specsavers yesterday for an eye test and will try your ploy of wanting free reactions and see how it goes. Mind you my friend works there and they (we) get 20% off a new pair, or 10% off 2-4-1!
