    That would be in US currency $485. In the U.S many people have vision plans and or insurance but their still half the price. I'm not sure what NHS covers. -20 to -23 is an extremely strong correction unless you meant -2.00 -2.50. The stronger the correction the more likely there are to be distortions thus it probably takes more time to get the right quality.

    that type of sounds like it really is a glasses prescription, if it became for contacts, it ought to have a base curve and a diameter too. because it really is a exceedingly reliable perscription, your contacts isn't the very similar as your glasses besides. i ought to signify you call the position the position you obtain the glasses and they must have the prescription on list.
