Getting Prescription Glasses in China: No Scheduled Appts, Hurt Wallets, or Hidden Costs!!

Ni hao! Due to a crazy birthday weekend a few weeks ago, I lost my lifeline aka MY GLASSES. Though I’ve had the same glasses for the past 4.5 years (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it), it was probably time to get new ones anyway!! Follow me on my journey to the Fake Market in Shanghai to get new specs. No hidden costs!! No scheduled appts!! No long wait time!! Will I stay within my budget of $145 (1000RMB) for glasses and contact lenses or will I break the bank while trying to see again? Let’s see if China can compete with American prices when it comes to getting glasses without medical insurance! Eyeglasses were purchased from Angela Optical in Shanghai!
