Specsavers: Dumbos and deceitful

Vision Express: Clever, understanding and polite. Given the problem I have, mentioned below about the bridge measurement and subsequent weight, the manager also acknowledge that the lens could have been thinner and has offered me a new pair free.

Bought four of these only to find the bridge measurement is out of sync with common UK standards, which is the minimum width between the lenses. This measurement goes from half the width of the rims that holds each lens. This model, although sold as 19mm works out at 23mm. This extra width means the optical centres are off by 4mm resulting in extra thickening of the lens to accommodate the fitting.

This only became apparent when I had the prescriptions fitted and became a big problem with the higher optics, resulting in spectacles that weighed 65g. As I had three pairs made up, at a cost of £600, the suppliers have credited me two pairs and I returned the unused one.

This credit of approx £240 will cover a new Saville row frame. Details to follow.
