Unique Kyoto Itinerary | Getting Glasses, Samurai Museum, exploring Nishiki Market

[@heratlas]

I have NOTHING to compare these prices to since I have never purchased glasses before. Where do you live and how much does an appointment and frames cost you? Is this expensive? Cheap? I thought it was reasonable and had an awesome experience at JINS. Let me know if you have any questions - I hope you get a chance to go, too!

Jesus loves you ❤️ so so much. It is his desire to be with you. He longs for you. All you have to do is repent and give up all sin to follow him. His word says "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." If you are going through anything, he is right there waiting for you, constantly waiting for you to come to him. God gave up everything he loved through his son Jesus just for the chance that you might love him back. He is waiting with open arms. And time is short. These are the last days. I say all this because I care and don't want any of you to perish and neither does he. Please turn to him and repent now while there is still time. He loves you. The God of all creation actually loves you. There are things that don't always make sense in this life, things that cause us to blame God, and believe me I've been there too over some extremely heart-wrenching situations but he is a God who will never leave us nor forsake us so long as we stay with him. He is the complete expression of love. Just give him a chance. His heart longs for you. He chose you when he planned creation. You are not a mistake. His thoughts towards you outnumber the grains of sand. He died for you. The God of all creation let himself be nailed to a cross and suffer for you so you don't have to. Please make the right decision to repent and turn to Jesus to receive salvation now while there is still time, because it is almost the end. All you have to do is believe in your heart and confess with your mouth and say "God in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus, I confess that I am a sinner in need of your Grace. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. Please forgive me God for all my sins and please come into my heart and my life Jesus. I confess that Jesus is Lord and I make you Jesus, Lord and saviour of my life in Jesus name. Amen." Also be on the lookout for the mark of the beast soon to come. This will be something that ALL will be required to take either on/in their right arm or forehead and will be necessary to buy and sell things and essentially live. No matter what, do not take this mark because those who take it may be beyond saving.

This is cheap!! I’m amazed at how many options they have that’s included with exam and frames!! Crazy, two pairs have cost me $500 USD… with insurance 😅 lol

[@nish221100]

@@Rebekajade yep. That's in line with what I paid, too. (US)

[@高田昌宏-y5k]

予約無しで買えます。処方箋無しですよ。レンズとメガネのフレームを購入したら、60分後には完成したメガネが受けとれます。遠近両用のレンズ、曇らないレンズは7日でメガネが受けとれます。ちょっと値段は高いです。

[@miriamkaulbarsch]

Those glasses are super cheap! When I buy new glasses in Germany the prices range from 150 - 300€ or higher!

[@cristielb1033]

Glasses in Japan are super cheap! My family's eye exams are usually free with insurance, but after insurance our frames and lenses usually cost over $200 for one pair!

[@MrsPix20]

You look GREAT in your new glasses! Fellow astigmatism glasses wearer here. :-) Thank you for all you do to showcase Japan and it's culture!

[@じゃが天丼]

Thank you very much for your posting! I'm glad that you have enjoyed Kyoto Trip🌸

[@heratlas]

I LOVE visiting Kyoto! Thank you for watching!

[@megankuehler8620]

Just wanted to say I LOVE your glasses!! They look so great on your face! Perfect!

[@ruta_kkuma]

I bought some airframe JINS glasses for $140 which is on the cheaper side I would say. I love how they suit my face, and I can't wait to get some new ones when I move to Japan!

[@Takayiotakuchan]

Amazing price for 2 pairs of glasses and an eyes exam! Typically its 60-80CAD an exam and frames can go from 200-500 CAD! And you have extra to pay for special lenses and stronger prescription

[@kristinwight8465]

I saw you putting the heater down all the way.. I’m glad I am not the only one! Japanese hotels in the winter are always so hot! I still think 17 degrees is too high for me. Most of the hotels wouldn’t have windows that open either. I have to also say that the hotel grocery in Kyoto has much larger rooms than the one in shinjuku. Love the glasses!

[@kuramakid]

I didn't like those red glasses when you tried them, but with the lenses changed, they looked super good on you! I'll buy one pair, can't wait for the trip. Just 22 days and counting... The most amazing thing is that they are done in 30 mins.

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

Also, I've never seen a custom fitting in Canada. They just give you the glasses in a case, and it usually takes 2-3 weeks because they are made in huge factories, not in-house. Your experience was stellar!

[@Tony_Kyoto]

I'm a Japanese person living in Kyoto. Thank you for posting your trip to Kyoto. Nishiki Market, Teramachi, and Shinkyogoku are my favorite places. How are your glasses? I’m sure It will be a good memory for you in the future.

[@serenity4eva89]

What a fun adventure 🥰

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

Wow. I should get glasses when I go to Japan. I have -6.00 plpus astigmatism and in Canada glasses cost me $700 to $800. Even on Glasses USA, it was $300. This is mind blowing!

[@savboo10]

I've been wearing glasses for almost 20 years. Your experience is amazing! I've never got a customized glasses fit! Applying Heat? That's unheard of, hehehe. I'm so happy that you got such an amazing experience getting your first pair of glasses! They're also super cute on you.

[@heratlas]

Thanks for sharing!!!! Yeah I thought the customized fit was such a cool touch!

[@Boriquapearlnn]

One of my favorite videos from you! Forgot to mention anyone considering JiNS on your visit to Japan your purchase may also qualify for duty free, and you can bring your current RX from the U.S. and forgo the eye exam. Thats what I did a few months ago :) JiNS airframes are sooo comfortable!

[@steffe2444]

Went to nishiki Jins for my glasses.. very helpful and nice staff 🥰

[@uynayr]

I love JINS. We have one in California. 😊

[@heratlas]

It's SO GOOD! I'm curious what the price difference is between Japan and the States!

[@jmk1559]

I met tamari the exact same way, I just saw your vid on his Instagram that’s awesome!

[@sharonhobbes40]

Samurai outfit of the day- 🤣

[@letiziacastiglione2492]

It’s a shame the night walk offer doesn’t apply if you live in Japan. 😭 I’m glad they made the exception for you since they were sponsoring the video. Lol.

[@nish221100]

Wow, that's a pretty good deal. Those prices are good.

[@dk-youtube]

I never thought I'd end up seeing myself in one of your videos but here we are. We traveled from the US and ran into you at Nishiki market (mid February). Small world :) Didn't say hi, sorry! Maybe next time.

[@heratlas]

Wait WHAT!!! Whyyyyy didn’t you say hi 😭😭😭

[@dk-youtube]

​@@heratlas I dunno! It all happened too fast! Plus you were talking to the other lady and we didn't want to bother you. We've been watching your videos for years, first time ever in Japan and bam, ran into you in Kyoto of all places. I even took a picture of the same exact tempura stall earlier that day. I also thought that tempura was real btw. Japan's fake food game is strong haha 😂

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

But burgers smell good 😆🍔❤

[@laurieleonard8209]

I’ve had astigmatism all my life l didn’t learn how to read until l got glasses lol

[@heratlas]

this explains so much for me haha … they feel like they're constantly trying to focus

[@terrawolf3802]

yeah, a lot things make sense when you figure out one has astigmatism (car lights looking like exploding stars at night are an example of astigmatism)

[@robyngrieve9665]

I'm very very short sighted and often find that expensive (around $800) is my only option. 😢

[@bengt_axle]

That prescription is so low, I wonder whether you even need glasses.
