In Reply to: multi focal glasses for my mum at home posted by becky on Sunday, 4. March 2007 at 06:11 Bali Time:
I had multi focal glasses made in Bali at Discovery Shopping Mall (first optmetrist on left). I am very happy with my selection. They do need the screws adjusted now and they are a little loose, and I dont feel comfortable asking my usual optometrist to adjust these frames since I didnt buy them here. The other problem is, if the glasses arent quite right, can you Mum get assistance here?
Yes there are many many frames to choose from.
Often the arms on the frames are 'moulded/adjusted' to suit your shape of face.
Quite risky, but then you save a couple of hundred dollars. I wasnt able to claim my glasses on my private health fund extras cover, which was disappointing.
