I don't think thats alot for glasses... I spend more than that. It only gets really expensive if you are like me and go through 7-8 pairs a year
I broke 3 pairs in a weekend once...
Leave them on the train, sit on them, fall asleep in them, Tread on them getting of the bath etc etc....
I like to have at least 3-4 pairs to choose from depending on mood and occasion as well....
For example, I can't wear these to work... apart from a Friday
I was gonna go to SpecSavers, but I decided to stay with my personal opticians cos they have always looked after me in terms of service. As I said, I've not ha d a new pair in 10yrs, but in that time they have never charged for for any repairs I needed (like when the lense came out the other week and the frame needed retapping for a new screw, or the time one of the nose pieces broke and needed reattaching etc etc)
So I went with them... Albeit for over £400
