    Kung online naman, may alam ba kayo na legit seller? Maski US based, mas mura kaya kung through shipping?

    Thanks!

    okay naman diyan. yung shop na suki ako yung mga fil-indian yung may-ari. nagbibenta sila ng murang orig frames. yung adidas ko mag 3 years na galing sa kanila. tapos maghahanap lang ako diyan (or sila) ng gagawa ng transition lens. basta usisain niyo rin para kahit mura, quality pa rin. canvass lang kayo sa lugar na yan yun nga lang para sakin karamihan ng frames diyan baduy kaya medyo matagal ako mag-stay diyan. wala akong mapangalanang particular shop. kundi dun sa mga indian, umiikot pako.
    mga 10 years nakong pasulpot-sulpot diyan pero hindi ako nagdadala ng oto dahil makipot papunta diyan.
    dati sa friend ko na optometrist ako nagpapagawa. eh sa mall siya kaya though discounted nako mahal pa rin.

    Sir, ano pong name ng shop ng fil-indian na pinupuntahan nyo? And ano po advantage and disadvantage ng transition lens? Interested po ako sa transition lens for a change. Thanks

    gamit ko na sun glasses ngayon rudy project... palit palit ako nang lens hehehe paggabi yellow.
    alam ko depende rin sa frames yung presyo.

    pahingi naman ako kahit lens lang.
    remedyohan ko na lang yung frame.
    daming alambreng sampayan dito.

    pano nga pala nalalaman yung mga batang malalabo ang mata?
    yung iba ata parang 3years old pa lang, ang kapal na ng lente.

    Is anyone using one of those flexible titanium frames?

    Can anyone recommend a good brand? i've seen them go for 5-10k online, but locally i've seen some going for a few thousand pesos. i doubt if they're of the same material/quality, so i've put off buying a pair.

    i'm currently using multilayered lens, but if the frame is progressive-friendly, it would be a plus.

    i have good experience with charmant. but they are not flexible. they are just matibay.
    by flexible, i think you mean those with spring-loaded temples. i have one such. non-titanium, cheap & generic, but still ok after 10 years. the truly flexible ones (pretzelize them and they spring back to normal) are the carbon fibers, which i don't see anymore.
    most guys i know, like progressive lenses. i tried 'em before, and didn't like it. i am now into half-moons. they're lighter than the businessman's type (yung thick, very prominent, straight horizontal) that i had before.
    and yes, progressive lenses are hideously expensive. they cost 5-10x more than the non-progressives. my eye doctor says there are ophthalmologic advantages of progressives, but... i still don't like 'em. but some vain people prefer them, because they feel younger with it (hindi halatang naka-doble-vista na sila). heh heh heh.

    well I have a supposedly titanium frame which I bought on ebay for only a few hundred pesos. Then pinalagyan ko ng progressive lens sa local shop. siguro > 5x ang cost ng lens compared sa frame

    dont know if its really titanium but its light and not magnetic. Not sure what you mean by "flexible". So far its OK

    since mura lang naman (+112 fee sa local post office namin no tax) pwede I figured pwede i testing pagbili bago lagyan ng lens

    i mean the type you can literally twist around like rubber, then babalik sa dating shape -- e.g. Flexon. i've seen a lot around Quiapo, but the low price made me suspicious.

    puede ring, itinapon sa barko at na-bingwit ng mga mangingisda...
    you might buy two. try one, using cheaper prescription lenses first. and if it turns out ok, you can have the more expensive progressives installed in your second frame. may reserba na kayo!

    btw... not all frames can have prescription lenses installed on them. some of those "pang-isputing" types are not for prescription lenses. show it to your optician, po, and see if them frames can hold prescription lenses.

    The ones i see online are between $150 - 250. If they're really that good, i'd bite. If you average out the cost over 5-10 years, carry lang.

    Locally natanungan ko between 5k - 12k, kaso super nipis. Only the super thin lens would fit, so kung mataas masyado grado, di na pwede

    Oo nga pala, depende din sa glass.

    So yung oakley prescrition medyo manipis din for higher grade glasses?

    Agree sa Quiapo ka pagawa ng transitions and progressive lens but you have to be sure na original transitions brand ang lens. Baka China Lang ang lens at mawawala effect after a year

    That's what my uncle was telling me too, bro.

    I haven't done that yet, though....
