I'll recommend where NOT to buy glass lenses: goggles4u I ordered a pair from them, then got a replacement pair, and then gave up. Their mineral glass lenses are full of optical defects. My first pair had some sort of pinch or swirl in the optical center of the left lens so bad that it actually created a localized double image. The second pair had a spot of severe chromatic aberration (i.e., rainbow effect) in the right lens and some ripples in the left lens that affect reading and computer use. I've bought a lot of bargain glasses but never seen anything like this.
