What are the best optical stores in Thailand for quality progressive glasses?

Sp

Optom..

I and my wife use iWear. No issues and good English speaking opometrist in my branch. BK Rama 2 The Bright.

The exact name escapes me right now, but the Eye Hospital on Sukhumvit Soi 23, between Phetburi Road and Sukhumvit (west side of the Soi) is said by Thai opticians to be the "oldest and best in Thailand, and they have an attached Eyeglass shop called "Moom Mong." I later got similar lenses in the city of Hat Yai (Songkla province in the south) for half the price, and the glasses worked fine, but that chain of stores is just getting up and running, and is probably available only in Hat Yai still (still, the effective discount might be worth the cost of two round trip air fairs, if you want to know the Hat Yai shop's name.....

On Sukhumvit near Soi 29 / Asoke

I've been a customer of Opticland for 25+ years.

Family owned and operated. High tech equipment, excellent English spoken, great prices. They ALWAYS have some cheaper options for frames that are not on display. 😉

Whats your location?

Careful of Owndays - they are good value for money, but they use their own lenses, which have limitations - that’s why they’re cheap. They tried twice to do a pair of 3 vision progressive lenses for me and failed both times. They might be okay for a 2 vision progressive lens, but I did not ask for that, so I don’t know for sure.

If you can find a good optical dispenser who uses Essilor lenses (look them up: with a good frame , you’re on the right track. Make sure whoever you see agrees on a refund if the lenses don’t work - progressive lenses require a lot of getting used to and apart from mistakes made in how they are set up, some people can never get used to them. I was lucky and eventually found a skilled optical dispenser who was able to provide accurate instructions to the lens provider, but it can be hit and miss (and it wasn’t cheap!) - good luck.

I‘m always happy with Top Charoen

If you are in the Pattaya area, Euro Optics in Royal Garden Plaza. She specialises in progressive lenses. Having also used a large chain opticians here, I’d avoid them. They completely messed up my prescriptions.

What about Optical88 in Bluport ?

If you are in Hua hin there is only one place for sure that is Time Optics

Top Charoen is good and has shop everywhere!!

Easiest way to open thai bank account? Please,

Owndays are very good.

You may want to try Top Charoen. My reading glasses are done by them.

I also need that 👍
