Eye check - nice surprise, half price for seniors
- After past messages exposing exorbitant prices of spectacles, I was pleased this morning to be charged half price (standard policy apparently) for the eye check. In the past it's been $60.
- So I am dutifully broadcasting it here. But always check the cost of the glasses. You can get them very cheaply on line after getting your eye check done in town. See
www.ezyglasses.co.nz... and compare with www.optically.co.nz... (I found that Clearly.co.nz seemed cheap until you added on the frills, costing hundreds more.)

58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16% ... It is complicated
