Hi all,hav,nt posted for a while but I do read posts daily, I was wondering if

anyone had tried oxyglasses that let you hide the tubing in the frame,

would love to try but they all seem to be American based companies the videos

look great wondered if there is any UK based company.

They sound like a good idea

They are very expensive and there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in them. I am sure that you could do a personal import from the USA but the cost, including a supply of consumables, would exceed £400.

The cheapest pair is US $258. Add consumables for one year ($60) and shipping (at least $50) the total comes to about $368. That is about £306. Add VAT of 20%, making the total £368. You then need to find an Optician who will prescribe/dispense and fit lenses.

And on top of the amounts stated by HuwieHex you may have to pay import taxes. I am not sure but I have heard where some people have had to pay excessive taxes when having items delivered from certain countries so please be really careful. I know it states "Free Shipping" but that will not mean you don't have to pay taxes. Xx
