Has anyone got the rimless glasses you can get from opticians?. Ive got to cut down on wearing contact lenses and im going to have to wear glasses more, but i hate wearing glasses, so im thinking about getting some rimless ones. Do they look ok when you have a fairly high prescription(-4.25 short sighted)?. Im worried they will look a bit thick with my prescription in them. |

I know nothing about them, I'm partial to a bit of rimming myself  |

-4.25 - Fairly High ? You lucky bastard 
I hate my bloody glasses and am hoping for a win on the lottery to go and get them lasered.
Contacts worn for anything social I get up to, but have to wear glasses for work - at a computer screen all day, and my contact lenses tend to get too dry 
To get anything light weight enough I have to spend well over £200 GRRR |

I have -3.25 and they do look a bit thick, I have heard you can go for lightweight one but not sure on those |

I just got rimless varifocals or is that bifocals!!!
I need fairly strong lenses as I have astigmatisms in both eyes 
I love them as you don't look like you have glasses on.

Try asda.
It's around £100 for two pairs and if your prescription warrants it they make both pairs super thin for that price!
I'm extremely short sighted and was very surprised when I got mine as they were thinner than any other high st optician would go even for a supplement! Previously I had to buy from a lens lab to get that thin.  |

You are now allowed to take your prescriptions elsewhere. My friend tries on glasses to get an idea. He then looks on a website I think its called speccy 4 eyes then orders from there. He said they are so much cheaper. |

Generally it's not recomended to have rimless glsses when you have thick lenses even if you have had them made thinner, they still look thicker than if you had frames. It's even worse if your eyes are very different prescritions.
