Can anyone suggest a good place to buy cheap glasses? I wear contact lenses so do not need anything fancy - just a cheap pair of glasses to wear when the contact lenses cannot put up with the pollution anymore! Cheers, ya all

I buy my glasses from a small optometrist at the Terminal Market in LongJiang. It is a Suning owned market at the terminus of several bus routes. I imagine, any of the other market environments in Nanjing would be worth checking out.

Thank you Laurence. I'm not familiar with that part tof the city - do you know what street it is on?

A friend has also just told me that there is a market under Gulou square that might also be worth a shot. Can you confirm this?

Thanks again - this is a useful site!

Why not take a Chinese friend with you?
I would go with you.I will study in Nanjing University tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
