Default Prescription Mask

I've finally accepted that my eyes just are not up to the job, so am considering buying a prescription mask. I had a look at Joe Diver in the US and the masks seem to be about half the UK price, but the postage cost brings the price up to around the UK average. Does anyone have any tips on where I should buy from and how much I should be paying?

This is the line where imaginitive people write something they think is funny when actually it isn't (just like this).

You might try the stick-on bifocal lenses. They work great for me.

Default lens

not sure what type of mask you have but with mine i just had the shop pop out the regular lens and pop in new perscription lens. i did not need to buy the whole mask. i would not recommend buying a mask online because you should try it on before buying. better yet, you should dive with it before buying. can`t do that with an online dealer.
