Sorted by the lowest published price for prescription lenses (USD). Labs that don't publish a price are listed last. Prices change and depend on lens options; always confirm on the lab's site. Not medical advice. Warranty: Ray-Ban's US FAQ says the Ray-Ban Meta manufacturer warranty only stays intact if Rx lenses are added at a certified retailer.
