Good quality reading glasses retailer in Dublin

    Anyone know anywhere in Dublin (pref. city centre) that sells a good selection of higher quality reading glasses, e.g. Foster Grant or another similar brand?

    I tried Boots, but they didn't have a great selection.

    Dealz and other discount shops have okay cheap reading glasses for €1.50 or €2 a pair, but they're plastic and break easily, and I'm looking for something a little better quality.

    Why not get a proper pair of glasses that will have a warranty etc?

    A proper pair of glasses (e.g. varifocals) would cost a lot more, and I only really need reading glasses, I don't want to go down the varifocals route just yet.

    To partially answer my own question, the Lloyds pharmacy chain sell Foster Grant reading glasses, though the two branches I visited didn't have a huge selection.

    Fine if you know which model you want (you can also order direct from Foster Grant with £3 postage), but otherwise you'd want to be able to try them on for size, etc.
