‘Sunglasses Repair On The Increase’ – Budget Conscious Repair Rather Than Buy

As consumers look to cut costs wherever necessary and a thrifty outlook on life becomes flavour of the month, Sight Direct, the leading providers of sunglasses and ski goggles are reporting a marked increase in those getting their eyewear repaired as an alternative to buying a new pair.

Matthew Coxhead, managing director from the firm who offer Oakley sunglasses, Ray-Ban lenses and Dragon Optics said, “In the current financial climate, consumers really are looking to save money wherever necessary and we have seen a huge increase in those looking for sunglasses and goggle repairs as opposed to investing in a brand new pair. This is certainly not surprising considering the saving that can be made by taking the latter option.”

Offering customers to their site a selection of products to make repairing your favourite lenses a reality, Sight Direct offer Ray Ban lenses, side arms and side arm tips priced at just £9.95, aimed at making that essential maintenance work even more affordable.

Available for a whole host of models and colours, the side arm tips available from Sight Direct are available in pairs and delivered in just 1-2 days.

Alternatively, for those who love their Oakley's, the Oakley Wires Earsock and Nose Piece Kit, is the ideal companion. Priced at just £12.50, this novel kit comes complete with a left and right earsock and a left and right nose-piece, all delivered within 1-2 working days.

Mr Coxhead added, “Here at Sight Direct we offer a huge range of parts and spares ideal for a wide variety of makes and models, all supplied direct from the manufacturer. So whether you are looking for sunglasses repairs or goggle repairs, we will have something to meet both your needs and budgets.”
