I have bought new specs every trip - 23 trips next month.
Have used a number of optik shops, mainly in discovery but have also used the ones in Kuta Square. Prefer the ones in Discovery.
Rough cost - progressive prescription with transition (change colour in sunlight) and scratch protection including good quality frames - about AUD$300. Last pair from Optik Melawai, but have used them all - I look for frames that I like then go from there.
Some people will tell you "Can get cheaper with Mr..." - most prob can, but I feel more comfortable with a proper optik than someone on the side of the road.
Hope that helps.
