Opticians in Phnom Penh

Country forums / South-East Asia Mainland / Cambodia

Hi recently had my eyes tested and need new glasses which can be very expensive here in England, Was wondering whether it would be worth trying to get a new pair made up in Phnom Penh. Can anyone recommend anywhere, does it take long and are the Opticians in Cambodia trained, I have heard its not necessary for them to legally be trained.

Try MODERN OPTICS in PP
1 Day service. New machines. Good choice of frames and cheap.
140 Sihanouk blvd at st 63
enjoy

I use Grand Optics; corner of Norodom Blvd and St 154; free computerised testing and range of frames/ lenses including scratch resistant/ extra thin/ anti glare etc (or normal if you prefer of course)

I always travel with a copy of my English prescription even so the opticians I have used in PP insist on making sure that it is correct

Thanks for the advice folks, definitely going to try and get some glasses.
