Bought a new pair of glasses from Look Optical in Sinchon (just down the street from where I live). I’ve been wanting a pair because sometimes I don’t feel like wearing my contacts but my old glasses are a different prescription so it makes me dizzy to switch back and forth. So these have the same prescription as my contacts! ^.^

The frames were 12,500 won and the prescription lenses were 40,00 won. So total it was only 52,500 won, which a lot less than prescription glasses in the US usually are. I'm so pleased with my purchase!

Also, the service was good at Look Optical. I approached a guy and started speaking in Korean, but he just switched to English, so it’s definitely a place someone who doesn’t speak Korean could go. They also offer vision tests or you can just buy the frames if you don’t need a prescription.
