You pick a mask that fits and they send it off with your prescription numbers and get lenses stuck to the inside of the glass. I'm on my second one now. You probably need to talk to somebody who knows the ropes not the DM intern serving behind the counter. nigelH |

| Thanks Nigel. Any suggestions on dive shops which would be able to do this with a rapid turnaround (probably 2-3 weeks max given I can only go out shopping at weekends)? I was thinking this might make it tough hence why I'm also looking for internet recommendations. Have found one or two through Google but would be interested in anyone's personal recommendations. I'm also not so keen on the corrective stick on lenses (I'm was told this isn't an option on my astigmatism). My last pair I had lenses specially made - but admittedly I was living in Asia at the time where perhaps it was easier.
