Opticians

Post by DebbieC »

Hello,
I am in Tobago and love it. However, I was stupid yesterday and dove into Store Bay with my eyeglasses on. Of course, they are probably on a beach in Venezuela now.
The one optician here on Tobago can get me a pair of glasses in about two weeks. While I would love to stay and wait for them haha, I can't.
Does anyone know if there are there any opticians or optical places in Trinidad that processes eyeglasses in one or two days, like a Lenscrafters.
I hate to spend the rest of my week not able to see anything.
Thanks for any info anyone has.

"Optometrist today" and "Ferreira" etc. take a few days to process it.
You can get a ready made "temporary solution" at Superfarm.

In Scarborugh on the right hand corner of Bacolet St and Main St there is an opticians upstairs that sells ready to wear "reading" glasses not expensive either.I think they used to do a 48hr prescription service as well.

If reading glasses for max +4.0 is enough, you can also find them in the Lowlands Mall, at the pharma, they hav more than medicine there!
