Montreal - Cheapest Prescription Lenses

Hi,

Where in Montreal can I order new lenses for my prescription sunglassses for the cheapest price? Any suggestion?

I don’t need a frame, just the lenses. I don’t need some amazing quality. These are just sunglasses I will wear on vacation trips. I’m getting quoted 300$ and it seems way too high (my prescription is -3.5).

FYI Costco will not do it if you didn’t buy the frame at Costco.

Just get them at Costco with a new frame. A low cost frame with lenses will be less than lenses alone elsewhere and you'll get the guarantee.

Good suggestion. I’ll try this out. Hopefully they do prescription sunglasses.

It will cost me only 120$ for the lenses! Even cheaper than Costco :-)
Will be ready in 1-2 weeks.
Thank you so much bylo

Glad to have helped. I heard about this guy on the CBC radio program I linked to. For some reason your query jogged my memory so I just did a bit of googling.
