Monoframe lens making in Europe

Post by moonnor »

Hi Everyone!
So I have been practicing both Air Rifle and .22 at 15m for some time now. Recently I found out that I am nearsighted and have started wearing prescription glasses whenever I need to see anything very accurately a bit far away. Wearing the same glasses for shooting has been a blessing for my accuracy, but I can't really utilize the cheek rest properly. Either I have to get really close to the sight when I am not even resting my cheek on the cheekrest or my glasses are not how it should be on my face and the whole thing just becomes uncomfortable.

So I have decided to get a monoframe from Anschutz. In my country making lenses is quite a bit expensive. So I would like to get it made somewhere in UK or Germany and get it shipped in the the EU. My right eye's power is: -0.75
Does anyone know someone or some small company that would be able to deal with such a request.

Thanks in advance :)

Please visit this website in the US
The postage to Europe may still make his lenses an inexpensive item versus buying in Europe.

There are a number of good shooting opticians in the UK, the easiest probably for you is

A better alternative but probably more difficult is to speak to Gary Alexander at Specsavers in Newbury https://www.specsavers.co.uk/stores/new ... Vic2l0ZQ==
