Both me and my wife ordered our precsciption glasses from Clearly contacts, and we could not be happier. I ordered mine when they had thier Boxing Day sale on, cost me $140.00 for brand name glasses with every option available for the lenses. My last pair I got from Costco, cost me over $350 with just the standard lenses. I would definatley recommend CC

Thanks for the replies so far guys, seems pretty consistent with what I'm reading online so far although I havent seen prescription safety glasses on there but I havent looked through them all yet. Either way my glasses would be $140 one there so if they don't have safety glasses I could easily eat the cost with what I'm saving through clearly contacts.

I also have very good experience with them Used their "completely free frame with glasses" offer once and I received the item as per as I ordered; in great packaging Oh and you get a free mini screw driver too (don't know whether everyone gives that for free over here) :P

My friend is the director for CC, so I know them probably too well. Great company, does great work. I don't wear glasses by all my friends who do order from the, and have nothing but good things to say.

Well this is great to know thanks! Now to pick a frame and try to get my prescription from my optometrist lol.

Your prescription is not that bad but having prism will make it difficult. If the optical centre of the lens is not directly in front of the pupil you can create a plus or minus effect of prism power. This will create a muscle imbalance causing a headache and discomfort and in the long run permanent fixation of the eye muscle. I assume this can be an issue when the person making the glasses has no idea how the frame fits to your face which means they will make it to the general centre of the frame. I can go on and on but my advise is don't do it. I'll be sending them back more often than actual use time.

If u really need to save the bucks and buy from them I suggest finding the frame design u like and try them on in a local store and kindly ask if the optician would mark the lens for your eyes and take all needed measurement so you can provide these to cc contacts.

I am an optician by the way. This is the same advise I would give my family.

Clearly contacts are bettr for contacts and simple prescriptions.
Cheers

When you enter your prescription they ask specifically for that measurement, pupillary distance etc. Personally I just camt justify the cost of buying them through my optician as its not the frames that are the issue but the lenses being upwards of $450 which is completely ridiculous.

Pardon me.. its axis and cylinder I am thinking of not pupillary distance.
