      It’s probably still cheaper in Sweden than it is in Canada with coverage.

      Between my government coverage and workplace private coverage, I still have to pay $100 for the eye exam, and I am blind enough that I have to be choosy with frames or I go over the 2 year limit on cost for my glasses (lenses alone cost >$200 before I add coatings, and I only have $500/2yr in coverage for frames, lenses and contacts put together).

        Yeah it’s probably a fair bit cheaper. Haven’t actually looked recently but last time it was free with a pair of glasses. That offer isn’t always available though.
