Reglazing spectacles

My prescription seems to change every time I have an eye test. My optician doesn't do reglazing and it's becoming very expensive to keep renewing my frames. Last time I asked for my prescription and took my favourite frames to a technician who reglazed them (varifocals) with excellent results.
Does anyone else find this and is my optician just out to make money?

This sounds like your optician is wanting to make money above providing quality eye care at an affordable price.
I wear spectacles constantly so replacing lenses isn’t an option but my optician will put new prescription lenses in one of my previous frames if possible ie there’s no damage to the frame. And actually, the optician normally sends everything away to a specialist laboratory anyway.
