Zenni charges +9.00 automatically for cylinders over 2 (+ or -). I have -2.25 for one lens and so know that yes, this extra charge does happen with Zenni. I have ordered twice from Coastal Contacts and specified -2.25 in one lens, there was no extra charge or change to lens possibilities (at least that was the case a few weeks ago when I last ordered). So it looks like anything over 2.25 is CC's point where they charge extra vs 2.0 for Zenni. Perhaps CC has to order-in different blanks or perhaps they have found customers unhappy with higher cylinder in their standard lenses. I've found them responsive to questions, I would ask them if they can tell the reasons. -- Check us out at the oft-updated http://glassyeyes.blogspot.com!
