Where to get new glasses (self.wellington)

My current spectacles are getting a bit bent out of shape, so I'm looking to get some new ones.

My last few pairs have been through SpecSavers, but they've ended up wearing out in similar ways. Could easily relate to a pattern of mistreatment on my part, but I'm keen to try somewhere else anyway.

Where do you guys suggest around the city? Ideally still budget friendly (would like to stick around $400 if possible), but open to all suggestions.

I did that when I lost my prescription sunglasses and ended up going with Smart Buy Glasses. You scan your face so you can try models on virtually and it ended up being cheaper than claiming insurance. They did send a dozen or so requests for reviews though so that was slightly irritating.
