Aren’t glasses getting cheaper?
To be honest I sort-of expected that glasses would be one of those things that would continually get more expensive. After all, there seems to be a whole lot of manual labour involved in getting them.
However, discount prescription glasses are available not only online but in the high street too. To give you some idea of just how much the prices have dropped, consider that my Mum’s nice, but not designer, glasses from 15 years or so back cost £150. Even designer glasses come for half that these days. Gone too are the cheapo NHS children’s styles and in their place are freebie glasses for the kids but in quite modern designs.
The prices have dropped so much that I even picked up a pair for myself for those days when I can’t be bothered with the contact lenses (which, surprisingly, aren’t any cheaper): all of £10!
