I went to get a pair here and was completely shocked at the price. In the USA, a similar pair of rimless "frames" would cost 200+USD plus an additional 100USD for the thin type of lenses required with my prescription. Let's not forget that there is also an additonal 60-70 USD charge for the eye exam!

Imagine my suprise when I got a free eye exam, rimless frames for $250 HKD and only $100 HKD extra for the special lenses!

That's 8 times cheaper than in the USA! (also went to Optical 88)
