What do you guys recommend? Owndays tong suot ko ngayon, which i broke earlier this week. In hindsight i should have bought metal instead of plastic -- it's just too brittle.
Or should i stick with the traditional optical shops?

Have owndays as my backup. Madalas ko din nagagamit kahit paano. It's good for me. I'm not exactly brand conscious with eyeglasses so even if the shop is unknown ok lang as long as I like the service and I'm comfortable with the resulting lenses. What I wouldn't do is go to Vision express. Pinasakit nila ulo ko. Long story. Anyway, ok din ang option sa quiapo as I've known a few who do go there for frames.

past 2 specs ko are from owndays, haven't tried their contact lenses...
ok naman... as long as nakakakita ako, brand is not important for me.
1 reason why I chose owndays is meron sya kahit saan. madaling mag pa adjust if needed.
Own Days is expensive! How much did you get yours?
Kung gusto mo medyo fashionable, you can still stick with Owndays or Sunnies, but I'd stick with Sunnies. Own Days is too expensive, considering di naman ganun ka ganda material na gamit niya. Similar Snnies frames can be bought sa GH/QUiapo, pero tyagaan sa pag hahanap.
Pero para mga tulad kong mataas astigmatism (300+ for both eyes), a pair of specs from Owndays will be worth 8k (thin, non-transitional, multicoated) while sa Sunnies, 5k (regular thick, multicoated, non-transitional).
Since masyado pricey, what I do is I just buy the frame from Quiapo, GH, online or sa Sunnies/Own Days tapos have the lenses made sa Ideal vision.
GH/online frames = 1,100
Sunnies frame = 1,200
Own Days frame = 1,500 - 3000
Quiapo = 500 and up
Ideal vision lenses = 1200 (multicoated, non-transitional, glass)
The polycarbonate lenses will cost 7k. Pero im good with yung glass lenses.
kung regular eye glasses lang.. mas mura sa Sunnies.. medyo mahal nga as OwnDays..
every 2 years meron kami dito sa opis.. i forgot the name of the shop.. meron sila sa Makati Cinema Square.. last kuha ko 3500 transition lens na.. 4 gives pa..
Ako naman sir sa Quiapo nagka bad experience. Two pair pinagawa ko, one metal, one plastic. Nung napilitan akong gumamit nung plastic na backup, isang buwan akong hilo. On closer inspection i found semi concentric lines on the lens, and bumiyak ung plastic on one corner. Since then di na ako nag Quiapo uli.
Not brand conscious at all. Burara ako sa gamit so i need a tough frame.
Papagawa na sana ako sa owndays kaso di nila kaya Ang wide angle vision Ng current progressive lens ko kaya Ang bagsak ko sa executive optical, mas wider Ang vision than my current at half the price of other optical shops dito sa festival mall Alabang.

ako nakatsamba ng ON Sale 60% off na Emporio Armani frame...nsa 3.5K lang tapos pinakabitan ko ng Shamir wide progressive lens..Happy with it,
How's your Shamir lens? Had bad experience with them. First Shamir ko was Autograph II. Took about 5 days to make pero had to go back and refit and then go back and refit again then eventually replace then go back and refit. That was about almost 2 months total of going back and forth until it was all good. I've a feeling it was more of the optometrist's fault than the material but it still pissed me off. When I needed a new pair, I stayed away from it and the shop as well.

I recently got Essilor lenses for 4.6k. It's not progressive but it has this "feature" where it somehow improves near vision. With my previous lenses I had to take of my glasses to see the letters on my keyboard or while texting. Ngayon, no need to remove my glasses anymore.
ang mamahal naman nang salamin nyo.. dito sa opis may optical shop na pumupunta every 2 years.. i forgot the name.. meron yata silang store sa Makati Cinema Square.. yung transition lens sa kanila eh 4.5T lang.. tapos 3 months to pay salary deduction..
