Check out ICU Optometry in San Gabriel. 220 W. Valley Blvd. Its in the second floor of Swiss Plaza. Everything is like half of what Lenscrafters is.

You can buy them at Costco for about $30 bucks then just go get some lenses made. OR you can also buy those reading glasses they sell at Longs Drug or Rite Aid for about $5 and do the same.. get lenses made for them.

For the reading glasses at Longs/Rite Aid, make sure you look at the frame itself to see if it has a screw to unscrew the old lenses so that you can get new lenses in there...

Yeah, he still works there part time. A different doctor runs the practice now. I know the prices have gone up a little bit, but its still cheaper than most places. My wife works there so I get good deals

Its off of Abbot in between Del Mar and New
