I don't need to wear eyeglasses now because I had LASIC in Japan, but I used to wear eyeglasses. When I first started wearing eyeglasses at age 13, eyeglasses were pretty expensive there. Those prices were usually over 20,000 yen, which is equivalent to about $200. Then, when I was 25, my husband former coworker recommended affordable eyeglass shops. At that time, the number of inexpensive eyeglass stores was increasing in Japan. Some stores were selling eyeglasses for 3,000 yen or so. I thought that those were too cheap, but those were actually very stylish, and I didn't have any problem with them. I bought some pairs of eyeglasses and chose based on the time place and occasion. If they had been very expensive, I would have needed to relay on the only one pair of glasses.
When my husband visited Japan last month, he bought these eyeglasses for 8,532 yen at J!NS in Tokyo. He also bought sunglasses for 11,772 yen.
