I have invariably found that cheap/budget glasses are only appropriate for people with mild impairment. If you're extremely short-sighted (like I am) then paying less means worse eyesight.

Why do my glasses cost so much? Because I am *very* short-sighted (-10.25), and I need expensive lightweight materials. The budget alternatives don't correct my vision well enough, and are too heavy to wear.
(I shouldn't need to explain why a wildlife photographer needs the best vision possible)

Stunning work! Such wonderful use of colour, and those roses must have taken an age to draw.

My secret is that take thousands of photos and keep the 20 or so that work.
