    Hey, I'm just wondering does anyone know if you can get insurance for your glasses. Considering you might spend 250 on a nice set of designer ones thats a comparable cost to a mobile, and you can get insurance on that.

    Also considering the ammount of threads you see hear about people breaking their glasses, plenty of people might get it.

    Anyway just wondering does anyone know if it available, and also just on peoples thoughts, how much would pay?

    My lenses cost more then that;)they would cost me around 700 euro to replace so they are named on my house insurance.

    700 euro!! They must be them new night vision, see through clothes lenses:)

    Putting on house insurance is a good idea actually, sadly with no house thats not an option for me.

    Hi Gillo,

    We have a 'Grand Advantage Card' which effectively covers you for
    any damage to your frame or lenses for two years..cost is 35e.
    The card covers you in all branches in Ireland/UK and Europe.
    For example if you get a scratch on your lens it will be replaced in any of our branches free of charge.
    The card also gives you and your family a further 10% discount on any
    other Spectacle purchases.
    Hope this helps.
