Quattro solution - good price

I usually pay between £19 and £22 for the 3 month pack, it's currently £14.49 on Amazon. Just bought 2 and they're dated 09/2021. https://charts.camelcamelcamel.com/uk/B004AFBON8/new.png?force=1&zero=0&w=725&h=440&desired=false&legend=1&ilt=1&tp=all&fo=0&lang=en

Re: At what point did you 'give in' to keratoconus?

I think of it as 'accept' rather than 'give in' but that is probably influenced by the fact that I'm not affected as badly as many others.

For people who can't afford dinner they can't afford solutions now removed from NHS prescriptions. I reckon many of us woul...

Re: Sudden change making piggy back wear impossible

Tiny tear in the soft lens? The symptoms match my experience when there is a small tear or chunk missing from the edge of the lens. Not being able to see too well doesn't help when trying to spot any imperfections...

Human vision limits

Not sure if this is available from the UK, I'm using a foreign IP and found it whilst browsing the BBC site:
