A newspaper article has reported on the quality of frames and lenses of £70 spectacles.
Glasses from Specsavers, Asda, Boots, Vision Express and Tesco were all included in a test carried out by The Daily Mail, which rated frames and lenses and overall quality. Dr Sneh Khemka, medical director at Bupa International and former eye surgeon at Moorfields Eye Hospital, was drafted in to give an impartial judgement.
