I am wearing high power eyeglasses for years now and i have used Zeiss , Crizal essilor brand and some generic brand. Zeiss lens are the best but expensive for high power eyeglasses as i prefer 1.67 index lens.
I never had good experience with local retailer for making good/perfect eyewear So i want hear from you guys, what you guys prefer?
Is lenskart and titan+ any good? What other brand of lens are good? Also not that much expensive like Zeiss.
 
Zeiss , Crizal essilor
Overpriced as f%^$ and highly prone to scratches, even more than the cheap ones. My existing glasses are from VisionExpress (Reliance + Grand Vision) and while the quality of their frames leave a lot to be desired, the lens are reasonable and much better quality. They are not present in all cities though.

They used to be great when glass was the only material, nowadays with cheap plastic and polycarbonate options, there's little to no difference.
The cheaper ones too are scratch resistant and anti-reflective so there's no point anymore in paying through the nose, opt for cheaper options always.

belive me .... Glasses made of Fragile Glass are more CLEAR VISION compare to those unbrekable/plastic/polycarbonate.

Glasses made of Fragile Glass are highly scretch proof & never shettered or break except you throw it with intention to break it, also the Natrual Glass Glasses are upto 4 time chepaer compare to plastic and polycarbonate options. Recently change my glass due to change in number and Bifocal Glass (excluding cost of frame) cost me Rs.700/- while Progressive (Plastic/Polycarbonate) was quoted Rs.2800/-, I selected Natural Glass Bifocal.

After 4 years of STRUGGLE with Progressive Glasses (with lot of vision issue), again trun to Natural Glasses with Bifocals and feel relax in EYEs.

With Prgressive Plastic/Polycarbonate specs you may look few year younger but your eyes may feel the issue.

PS Note: Natural Glass are little heavy/bulky in weight compare to Plastic/Polycarbonate

I can 100% agreed on that real fragile glass glasses are more Clear and scratch resistance BUT unfortunately i have high power which make them bulky and heavy. So i only prefer 1.67 index only.
