Jen65 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 you won't find one !! I have asked many shops specializing in glasses about doing a "field test" for my partial glycoma but alas was met with a blank or a load of nonsense saying yes they could do but then I found what they offer is just a normal eye test !!! Here one has to go to an International Hospital to get any sense out of people !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might try there is no one else has any recommendations. I remember reading a while ago some thread with a few recommendations but I can't find that thread now. Maybe if I had new glasses that would help in my search...ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beggar Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I recently bought eye glasses in Pattaya and I guess I went to every single shop in Central Pattaya that I could find. To cut a long story short - Thailand is not the place to find a huge selection of quality eye glasses and this for a reasonable price... But if you think about it - very many people in the West need good eye glasses. But many Thais don't seem to have this problem. Perhaps this is the reason. I always have the feeling the existing shops are just for tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you describe does not sound like a typical case for a "shop" but for a qualified ophthalmologist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlover Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Have you tried K T Optic? I believe there is a choice of 3 in Pattaya. I also have challenging issues. Very long sighted, different strengths and Astigmatic. Plus of course, being of a certain age, I also needed progressives. The examination was very thorough and the end result, a new pair of Varilux with daylight reaction are absolutely perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I don't think you will get what you need at a shop here. See an opthalmologist at a hospital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how241 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Share Posted November 14, 2019 Thanks for all the info. There seem to be 3 good recommendations. Euro optics, K T Optic, Pattaya Optical. On Pattaya Optical website they seem to have very modern, high-tech equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
