Glass frames

Going to Bali and KL and wonder what the frames are like for glasses in either Nusa Dua, Sanur and Kuta Want to buy a selection and get prescription filled. I know prices will vary but are they cheaper and do they have a modern range to choose from than home in Australia. Appreciate any info.

if you do a search on the forum you buying prescription glasses in bali you will be able to read many previous posts (some recent) regarding buying glasses in bali. you will also see names and addresses of where to shop. generally they are quite a bit cheaper than here in oz. i have not bothered to try KL only bali and phuket for glasses and what i purchased was a lot cheaper. the quality is A1

I went to a couple of optical shops in Centro.Designer frames eg..Dior,Guess Armani etc etc.all at around the $300AUD mark.That was for multi focals,with my own script.Multis do take a full week to be made though,so order early.(just bought a pair of Guess Multis in Melbourne ....$950...grr.

Thanks for your response...my quote in Aussie for one pair of glasses was close to $900 which is ridiculous in comparison.

yes prices are very high in australia compared to bali. do get to the optometrists early to order your glasses as a lot of lenses are not in stock and take 5 day minimum to complete your order. i have had some single vision lenses made within 45 minutes while i shopped just depends on what you are after.
