I went to the Eye Doctor on March 10th and got a new glasses Rx. I have been having the prescriptions filled at the Sam's Club Optical close to my old house for the last several years. Last year, I got one complete pair of new glasses, lens and frames. On the 10th, I took the new Rx to the Sam's Optical in the Club close to my new house and ordered new lens for 2 pair of glasses, not new frames. I was getting progressive bifocal lens for my regular glasses and also progressive lens for my sun glasses.
When I went to pay, she told me the total for 4 lens was $455.00. I thought that was high, but could not remember what I paid last time, just that it was high. For my regular lens, she charged me $130.00 each lens plus, $10.00 because I brought in my old frames and did not buy new ones for a total of $270.00 and for my progressive lens in my sun glasses, I was charged $87.50 each plus the $10.00 existing frame charge for a total of $185.00 or the grand total of $455.00.
For those of you who wear glasses, does this sound accurate? Seems real high to me since I did not purchase new frames.
Thanks,
George
