Save money on glasses with a Habinteg discount | Tenant news

With all the recent price rises, the last thing on my mind was replacing my glasses.

It costs a fortune, it’s hard to find a pair I like and it’s a lot of fuss. But it is important.

Over 1.5 million people in the UK have out-of-date prescriptions that affect their vision. An out-of-date prescription causes eye strain and – if you’re driving – can be dangerous.

Fortunately, it turns out, there’s a far cheaper solution: re-glazing your favourite frames. And it also comes with an exclusive Habinteg discount.

If you hunt around the web, you will find a raft of companies who will swap out your lenses for your new prescription at a fraction of high street costs. One of them has offered Habinteg tenants a discount.

I’m writing this wearing reading glasses that I first bought over a decade ago. They’re fancy rimless ones and I always liked them. So, when my optician uttered the dreaded words, “You need reading glasses”, I thought I’d try online.

Newlenses.co.uk are a lovely company with old-fashioned customer service. I posted my old glasses and my prescription to them and they replaced my lenses in a few days. Their cheapest lenses start at £30, which is a small price to pay to protect your sight. They also did my sunglasses which have turned out to be rather handy this summer.

Andy at Newlenses.co.uk was delighted to offer Habinteg tenants a 20% discount. Just type the code HABINTEG20 into the voucher box at checkout to get your discount.
