Where can I buy prescription glasses for my daughter ? ? ?

Hi,



I just wondered if anyone has any tips about where to buy prescription glasses. My 12 year old is very keen to pick up a fashionable pair! I have her optician%26#39;s prescription. Do you know if the American opticians use the same eye measurements as Irish and UK opticians? Also, if we were to order a pair of glasses, how long would it take to make up the glasses? We%26#39;ll be staying on I-Drive for 2 weeks over Easter.



Thanks in advance for any tips!

Don%26#39;t know about the measurements, but if you have a prescription, you can have glasses made at some Wal-Marts, Pearl Vision Centers, Lens Crafters, and I%26#39;m sure a whole lot more places.

And some places advertise ';Glasses In An Hour';. I think Lenscrafters does ... I don%26#39;t know if that was a limited time promotion or not.




Even if the eye measurements are different some eye places have free eye exams.




Hi All,



Thanks so much for those tips. My daughter was delighted when I told her that there were plenty of places that we could check out !

Broke mine on splash mountain took them to opticians in the mall ,they read your prescription off the lenses .




Another outfit I%26#39;ve seen around Florida is For Eyes Only.




I would go to lenscrafters since they will be ready in an hr.Why do you want to buy glass in the US and not Ireland




Cant recommend a place in Orlando based on experience but in general you can find one or two of them in most of the larger malls anywhere in the US. They generally offer a very wide variety of choices and prices. Most of the time you can make your choice, shop for an hour or two, and then come back and pick them up.





According to their web site their are several eyewear places in the Florida Mall and I%26#39;m sure there are in the other malls as well.

Hi GA, the main reason that I want to buy glasses in the US is price! Glasses here are quite expensive, so I think that we should do better by buying in the States. Of course my daughter is also fashion conscious, and is looking forward to seeing the huge variety of styles on sale there too!

I went into a small shop in the Beltz ( if thats the correct name) shopping Mall and got 2 really good designer pair for the price I paid for one pair in Scotland. I did have to wait 10 days but if I ran out of time they were going to post them to me.



Good luck.
