Eyewear shop near Hoehyeon Station, Seoul: mom's progressive lenses

Angyeonggwa Saradeul is an eyewear shop on Namdaemunsijang-gil in Jung-gu, Seoul, a 3-minute walk from Hoehyeon Station Exit 7. On a weekend visit to have glasses made for the writer's mother, Angyeonggwa Saradeul ran a detailed eye exam, explained the difference between photochromic and progressive multifocal lenses with a booklet and a demo kit, and finished with a full frame fitting. With 50% off every item in the autumn sale, it was an affordable place to sort out a parent's custom glasses.
