OK - I think it depends on your eyes and RX. I use to be able to get inexpensive glasses.
I then got a pair of high quality Zeiss Superb lenses and they were so much clearer I got spoiled but I can't find them anymore as they are more expensive and most doctors don't carry them.
Now as my eyes are worse I have a problem every time I get glasses as I have a progressive lens and a Plus lens as well. If they don't get the placement of the focal for the distance and the reading just right I either have blurry distance or blurry reading and as it all has to do with the distance from your eyes to the lens if you change frames it changes. It is not uncommon for me to have to have the thing redone at least once. I think maybe the new high index are harder to get right.
Just my experience. I could never use the internet for glasses.
