Prescription glasses and contact lenses: prices in Hong Kong

Updated 4 November 2026

Prescription glasses and contact lenses in Hong Kong cost about HK$202 to HK$588 a box or pack of contact lenses, and about HK$785 to HK$1,648 for custom lenses for branded frames. The price depends on the brand, the lens type and whether you need astigmatism or multifocal correction. For current offers for your prescription, post a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Hong Kong rules to check before you buy

Contact lenses are regulated here. Under Hong Kong law, only specified registered healthcare professionals may prescribe, fit or supply contact lenses on prescription, and the Medical Device Administrative Control System classes contact lenses as class II medical devices. Eye specialists have warned about unregulated lenses, so ask how your prescription was checked. Some online sellers give a 12-month warranty on frames and sunglasses that excludes non-quality issues, so read what it covers.

Season and climate

November is the start of Hong Kong's cooler, drier months. Winter runs from December to February, and summer from June to August brings heat and humidity. Summer is when photochromic lenses that darken outdoors and daily lenses you throw away each evening are worth considering. Order before a trip so you are not left without lenses.

Delivery and how prices are quoted

Prices are in HK$ and quoted per box, pack or pair as each seller lists them, so compare like with like. Some frames are advertised with free lenses, so check which lens type and coating come with the price. Lenses are measured in millimetres, such as 54 mm, and sellers will need your pupillary distance in millimetres. Name your district in the request, since buyers here usually choose from Central, Kowloon, Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan or Tuen Mun.

What to write in your request

Give the prescription values from your prescription card (sphere, cylinder, axis and, for multifocals, addition), your pupillary distance, and the lens type: daily, monthly or two-week, astigmatism, multifocal or coloured. For glasses, add the frame style, the size if you know it, the brand, and whether you need lenses for a frame you already own. Add the quantity, your budget and your district.
