This line of wholesale eyeglasses is divided into four categories: eyeglass lenses, eyeglass frames, contact lens lenses, and contact lens solutions.
One of the lowest production cost of contact lens solution, the overall profit is the largest, the production cost is basically the price of the packaging, the inside of the solution may not be much more expensive than saline, you have seen 40 yuan a bottle of saline. But that doesn't take into account the cost of patents, the cost of testing, the cost of bribes for approval, and the cost of advertising for promotion.
So contact lens solutions are a profitable business for manufacturers, and once a brand is established, it's a long-term gain. If a package of products sold for a long time, the price gradually decline, manufacturers will stop production of such products, casually change the packaging, buy relations throughout the new batch, and then sell from the high price.
In the specific profit distribution, manufacturers accounted for 90 of the profit, wholesalers accounted for 7, large retailers accounted for 3, some small retailers accounted for 1 or even flat sales, in order to fight the publicity.
There is a little secret, no matter what brand of invisible potion, the basic formula is the same, the difference is very small. Don't think that the product you paid over $40 for is too fundamentally different from the one you bought for $4. Of course branding, safety, and very minor differences in characteristics are objective, lol.
Additionally, the so-called full-featured no-rub care solution is basically a scam, and that's conditional on the no-rub, huh?
In addition to the original Alcon, all contact lens solution can not reach the real no-knead, of course, in China, as long as you are willing to pay money, mineral water can be turned into a no-knead full-featured nursing solution.
Haichang's solution and Bausch & Lomb's solution are the worst of the customer brands, with frequent problems, and the quality of the products still hasn't improved much, regardless of whether or not it gets SHE to endorse them.
Dr. Sun's products are the worst in its price range, and it's going to sell Weikeng's at an okay price.
American eye health of all-round or Qi Neng's drops moisturizing is good, but the domestic products in Hangzhou and in Hong Kong and Japan to sell the product compared to the packaging is much worse, the implementation of the standard is also lower.
The U.S. Alcon's drops are the strongest in sterilization, the earliest batch of the original U.S. liquid, really good, but it is very dry, especially in the north.
Vision's hydrogen peroxide is theoretically the only maintenance solution that can kill all fungi and bacteria, but it's not only expensive and troublesome to use.
Wellcome products are the most benign drops, with few outstanding features, but moderate price and quality. It's also probably the brand name potion that hasn't had any major mishaps so far.
Additionally, the branded potions are now starting to appear, i.e., there is no manufacturer, only the brand, commissioned by the manufacturer, such as shiny, natural beauty, Dr. Kang, etc. Theoretically speaking, you can also create a brand of potions, as long as you have a relationship, there is a certain amount of money can be.
Due to restrictions on drug imports, you have zero chance of getting a real imported product in China, so don't think it's a real Korean potion just because it's printed on the bottle.
For potions that have been sold for ten years, in a word, expensive indeed, but not worth it at all.
If you want to really want to protect your eyes, or do not make contact lenses.
In a side note, the function and ingredients of comfort solution, or artificial tears, are basically the same, except for the all-in-one product.
Second, contact lens lenses
Contact lens lenses are divided into hard and soft two kinds of contact lens lenses, hard contact lens lenses on the eyeglasses the least damage, but fitting, maintenance and maintenance costs are extremely expensive, the domestic general can not be produced, the general quality of the U.S. and Europe are generally good hard retail around 4,000 yuan to 8,000 yuan, the incoming price of 1,000 yuan to 1,500 yuan or so, due to the implementation of the monopoly system, so the pick-up channel is narrower. The price is around 1,000 to 1,500 yuan, due to the monopoly system, so the channels for getting goods are narrower. But as far as I know, there should be a lot of smuggled in water goods.
Soft contact lenses are extremely inexpensive to produce, with production costs never exceeding $3 to $5 each, and that's taking into account machine wear and tear and labor costs. I've taken contact lenses from manufacturers for as little as $12 each, and the quality is much higher than the mid-range products from Haichang and Weikeng, and slightly closer to the mid-range level of Dr. Dolce & Gabbana. Of course in our actual sales, due to the brand, the manufacturer is dead set on not giving us the real production price, but ten, dozens of times higher.
Generally, the wholesale price of the low-end and mid-range products of Haichang is around 30 to 50 yuan, Weikang is around 32 to 60 yuan, while Dr. Len is more dead, and the retail price difference is very small, but the end of the year will be given some incentives in the form of rebates.
According to my experience in this decade, the quality of Dr. Len's lenses is indeed good, the disadvantage is that they are good and bad and not easy to wear. Haichang is made in Danyang, Jiangsu Province, we can not buy, I do not look down on the people of that place, but the people of that place produced products I never use myself. I don't think Baoxinning's products are junk, but the quality is very ordinary. Weikang is made in Shanghai, the product is hard and small in diameter, Viscon's product is good, the price is on the high side, and the real imported Viscon doesn't seem to be easy to get. Johnson's products are characterized by soft, thicker, easy to generate bacteria, its daily and monthly throw good, half a year throw more than must be careful to clean.
The vast majority of other brands are labeled production or imported from Taiwan and South Korea, which does have good products, but there are also a lot of appetite.
The key to wearing contact lenses is to check whether you can wear them, how much water they contain, how big their diameter is, how big their base arc is, and how long they can be worn on a daily basis at the most, and in foreign countries they need to be prescribed by a doctor and wear them to prove that you can buy them, and that they must be regularly rechecked by a doctor. China is so much more than that, human life and dignity are child's play.
If you can afford not to wear contact lenses, don't wear them. All things aside, with the climate in China and the dust, you shouldn't wear them. After wearing them, I can conclude that you will have no major problems, but minor ones, lol. I've seen too many, some crippled ones I won't mention, especially in the south, and it's not uncommon for fungus to cause perforations.
But these days, girls can even show their panties for show for the sake of beauty, not to mention taking the risk of wearing contact lenses.
If you go to an eyeglass store, basically he will recommend you to pe the main sales of their store contact lenses, such as Baodao will definitely let you with Haichang or Dr. Lun, in order to sell a high price, their Haichang XXX, you can not be sure to buy elsewhere, because that is specially produced for their store, of course, refers to the packaging. If the small store, usually will sell you the so-called Korean goods, the quality of such goods can be, you can try, but not stable, because it may be this month's goods are produced by the Haichang factory, the next month's may be produced by the Weikang factory, when you sell, be sure to see is a similar batch number of goods. In most cases, if you are not comfortable wearing them, the manufacturer will definitely replace them for you free of charge. Because of this product, the business profits up to 60 to 90, change a few payments are not lost.
Three, eyeglasses lenses
Eyeglasses lenses are divided into two kinds of glass and resin,
Ordinary white glass lenses are generally in the wholesale price of about 1 yuan per payment, plus the film in the 5 yuan, and now due to the production of smaller, part of the glass price slightly upward, it should be in the 15 yuan. There are some high-grade glass lenses such as 1.90 refractive index price is still very high, but very few domestic, usually imported.
The wholesale price of ordinary light white resin lenses is usually around 4 yuan, and the price of film-added 1.56 ultra-thin resin lenses ranges from 7 to 15 yuan, while aspheric lenses range from 10 yuan to around 25 yuan, with prices of some brands possibly slightly higher.
The price of the film basically has nothing to do with whether it is green or blue or yellow, but some places will use the film layer to make a little article and sell it for a few dollars more.
1.61 tablets basically in the upper 50 yuan, 1.67 tablets in the upper 130 yuan, 1.74 tablets in about 500 yuan.
Progressive tablets of domestic basically in about 60 yuan, the big brands slightly more expensive,
Color-changing resin tablets in about 70 yuan, a large number of take also lower.
Dyeing tablets without film 7 yuan, plus film 18 yuan.
The astigmatism lens is usually not added money, more than 200 degrees astigmatism lens is expensive 5 dollars, more than 800 degrees is expensive 5 dollars, more than 1000 degrees of lenses to add some more.
Customized lenses may be more expensive.
Additionally, anti-UV400 resin film do not buy, usually in the inside with fluorescent powder, the surface is not transparent to ultraviolet radiation, in fact, blocking the light, not only affect the eyesight, the evening encounter bright light will be unable to see anything, we have the same wholesale market, the female owner of the car was hit as a result of this.
In addition, the resin lens itself does not absorb ultraviolet rays, so it is necessary to add a film to the resin lens, but so far there is no real blocking all the ultraviolet rays of the lens was introduced. The so-called anti-radiation lenses is basically a joke, you to the lens of the breath or dipped in water, are prevented, lying to children.
No matter what the blowing diamond crystal, carbon crystal, including Essilor, due to the resin sheet base is inherently soft, so the role is not big, and cheat no big difference. It's all about having a point of purchase, so you can get your money's worth.
The key to your lenses is maintenance, good maintenance, can make 2 years, bad maintenance, a year will affect vision, should be replaced.
All resin lenses should be tested when they leave the factory, A-grade products are basically out of the country, the world's resin eyeglasses lenses are basically processed on behalf of our country, because this factory is not conducive to environmental protection, in foreign countries are restricted, the cost is high, so they ship the raw materials to the country, processed and then exported, including all the big brands.
B-grade products are usually sold to the country, put on different packaging, pay for a license, and can be sold as different grades of lenses.
The advantage of this is that the same thing can be sold at different prices in different stores. For example, if you buy a Wanshin lens in store A, the trademark is Blue Sands, and the lens appears to be a W. It's real, and it sells for 600.
The same Wanshin lens in store B is trademarked as Asadi, and the lens appears to be a D. It's real, and it's better than Blue Sands, and it sells for 800.
And for those who have the same Wanshin lens in their hands, it's just that it's better than Blue Sands. The heckling mark, it's too simple, it's formed by generating a stronger charge with an electrolyte and passing it through a screen that breaks through one or two of the film layers of a film-added lens. I once made my own screen labeled SB, and for another 30 cents each printed up some mirror bags with Sabel on them, and put the trashiest C-grade lenses with that marking. Guess what, Sabel films sold like hotcakes in my province for 180 bucks per payout with no haggling.
Of course you all understand what SB means, but whether you've been an SB or not, I don't know, before I got into this business by mistake, I was.
This equipment only costs 500 yuan, basically every wholesaler has. Nowadays, big manufacturers like Wanxin are just sending the labels down, the bags are sent down, and whatever you put on the labels is what the piece is, and the retailers come with whatever they like.
By now, the sale of some of the retailers understand this point, they have their own marking device, and then print some mirror bag, hit the publicity said, such as the discovery of the store price of goods is higher than the other stores, payout of 20,000 yuan. It is a cheat, he store lenses all over the world can not buy ah.
Of course there are good and bad distinction between eyeglasses lenses, you have to have money, of course, should buy Zeiss lenses, especially Zeiss glass lenses, spend 25 days to order a pay, let them send to Germany to process and then send back, certainly good. Note, must be sent to Germany for processing, why, one is basically in the country will be replaced, the more Zeiss, the original Yi Yi Road such high-grade lenses, the price is public, the retailer's profit is very small, less than 50 percent, the effort, risk, casually sell you a high-grade domestic film, profits are in more than 95 percent. Why bother, and therefore must be changed, I did not say it, the more big store, store big bully store, just lie to you, the label has a bar, who can fight, you an ordinary consumer, what do you think that is a fake Zeiss it. Identification? Do you know what relationship we have with the Technical Supervision Bureau of measurement of buddies ah, at least also together with the relationship of dry goods ah, you certainly lose. We opened the glasses store, who does not have a few hundred thousand dollars in the family ah, and you are to cut off my financial road, you can win.
The second is that you have to understand one of the most basic truths, glasses wear comfortable, the quality of the lens itself only accounts for one percent, ninety percent is to see the level of optometrists, the other nine percent of the lensmaker's ability to see.
A qualified optometrist is important not education, but experience. I have a bachelor's degree, the first year of the theoretical assessment is the city's first, the practice of shadow detection optometry that is also good, but until today, I still have mistakes. This is a process of accumulation of experience, there are no thousands of cases of eyeglasses down, you dare to say that they are real optometrists? I see hanging, spend 1900 yuan can buy an optometrist license, huh. Blow chanting, Chinese people are not all blowing it, I am still intermediate optometrists, just entered the profession basically really buy senior optometrists license. Not just another 800 yuan, why not just buy a senior license.
A qualified optometrist will take at least 45 minutes or so to examine an average myopic and astigmatic customer, and even days if there are complications. But what eye hospital doctor will spend so much time on you, I have seen a lot of to the eye hospital to do the mirror after optometry is also uncomfortable, the reason, computerized optometry.
Computerized optometry is not accurate, there are times when it is accurate, but very few.
The only feasible objective measurement method so far is only one kind of shadow checking, others such as computerized optometry can only be used as an aid.
The disadvantage is that hundreds of millions of people in China are nearsighted, but how many optometrists are skilled in the technique of shadow detection? Oh, so I would assert that the vast majority of nearsighted Chinese do not necessarily know the truth about their eyesight until they die.
Looking at many students now from one or two hundred degrees step by step up to six or seven hundred degrees, in addition to the heavy with the current schoolwork related to the results of the optical examination is not allowed to make irrational lenses have an absolutely big relationship.
The same pair of lenses, the same optometry results, different lens makers with different tools to do out, the effect is completely different.
Nowadays, the big stores are making mold-free automatic machines, one-piece molding, the production precision can basically meet the needs of users.
And most of the mid-range store is to make the handmade templates of automatic machines, Japanese-made okay, domestic basically have to run the axis, left and right asymmetric phenomenon, make the lens do not dare to negate also do not dare to be sure, touch it.
As for the small store to take the handmade wheel, pliers to make the lens, then you do not think, want to quasi-that is strange. Some people say, that small store is good ah, I have been doing well for many years, but also quite comfortable.
Do you know, the human eye is the strongest organ in the human body regulating force, your eyes adapted to his glasses, huh?
The big store things are expensive, expensive has expensive reason, you want to be accurate, then how many ten times the money.
To be accurate, especially with astigmatism, you must choose half-frame brushed mirrors, because that is a one-piece molding, you can guarantee that there is no error at all. The perforated ones need to be assembled by hand and are highly susceptible to deviation, and the full frames many times need to have their edges hand-ground, with the possibility of error.
Four, now we talk about the frame
The frame is very simple to say, but not easy to do, or need some simple clamping tools, and assembly should belong to the labor-intensive industry, it is very labor-intensive, because Jiangsu and Zhejiang not only is cheap labor around, and from Shanghai, tight, easy to export, so the glasses frame manufacturers are basically in the Danyang area. Some manufacturers in the vicinity of Guangzhou.
Sunglasses manufacturers are basically in Duqiao, Fujian Taizhou area.
Whether this manufacturer or brand to blow their own international or Shanghai, basically is registered in the local a small face, in the above areas commissioned processing or simply OEM.
Glasses frame material is divided into two categories of metal and plastic, the early use of glasses frames are basically made of copper alloys containing high levels of lead and tin, the cost was very low, I remember that I just entered the industry in that year (1998) in Danyang bought 80 cents frames at the time the retail price of about 45 yuan. As lead is very harmful to people, copper is also too expensive, and now use the Monal alloy to do, this alloy is foreign research, in fact, is also a copper-nickel alloy, not easy to rust only. At first we went to import this alloy wire, and then imitated it, but the old Chinese habit is to cut corners, lead content is still excessive, with metal rimmed glasses, if you do not always pay attention to cleaning, heavy metals on the frame will pose a serious threat to the facial skin and even blood throughout the body. I bet no Chinese man who wears glasses for a long time has a smooth face.
Maybe people will say, "I've got the money, I'll make titanium, or I'll even make pure titanium.
But do you understand titanium? Titanium's highly pure refining technology at an extremely high level, the world only the United States, Japan and Russia have the ability to purify close to 100% titanium, the real high purity titanium more expensive ah, our country not only only only Baoji, a large number of titanium mines, and our country can only be refined into sponge titanium. So you buy the so-called pure titanium frame on the market, in addition to some pure imports or very high price (may also be false) can be asserted, are not really pure titanium.
So what impurities will the mentioned impure titanium have? Halo, is a radioactive element thorium and tantalum, although the amount is small, but long-term wear, radiation to the head in close proximity, I think this effect may be more important than lead.
Titanium and copper don't work, so take new materials: aluminum and stainless steel.
The so-called aluminum-magnesium alloy is actually an aluminum alloy, you've ridden one of these bikes, right, same. The advantage is that it is lighter and less prone to corrosion, the disadvantage is that aluminum is the main culprit for Alzheimer's disease.
Stainless steel is good, but the same question, which stainless steel you use, real food-grade stainless steel or industrial grade stainless steel, people who have worn stainless steel frames, you think you are wearing imported Japanese stainless steel? Does industrial stainless steel contain less impurities and exergonic elements?
Even if the material is good, the appearance of the spray paint, baking paint treatment, the paint layer itself on the surface of the skin and the long-term penetration of the muscle caused by the damage are very heavy.
So I am responsible to tell you that the mirror legs try not to choose metal.
So back to the mirror legs with plastic (the so-called plate) can not, in fact, plastic this kind of thing made of non-toxic is completely possible, but you use is not non-toxic I do not know.
Now it seems that bamboo or sandalwood may be environmentally friendly and healthier, but wear not much time, sweat dip easy discoloration and cracking.
With calfskin or salmon skin wrapped into the mirror legs are also on the market, not only expensive, and does not absorb sweat, hot, slippery.
A friend said I have money, I use tortoiseshell, don't be silly, this kind of South China Sea turtles have not only been endangered, but also is the national second-class protected animals, if JS is not to say that this is true, you can directly report him poaching and trafficking of state-protected wildlife, the state should give you a bonus more than that pair of fake mirrors.
Of course, there are platinum made, made of gold, heavy, spend money to find a crime is the first rich Chinese people's favorite.
So, there is not a completely harmless to the human body and can fully meet the cheap, light, tough, not fragile, but also easy to mass production of the mirror leg material, the fact that the situation is not both. You can only choose according to your own consumption level.
By and large, the plate frame is divided into two categories of lightweight plastic injection molding and hard plastic plate cutting molding, the former wholesale price (I sell out the price) of about 3 to 10 yuan, the latter wholesale price of about 15 to 50 yuan or so. That's for mainstream styles; older models that are dumped may be cheaper.
Wholesale prices for metal Monal alloy frames range from about $4 to $30, stainless steel frames range from about $15 to $50, titanium frames are generally in the mid to upper $40s, and pure titanium frames range from about $60 to $150. Tortoiseshell frames generally range from $300 to $800. The above prices will vary depending on the brand and origin, style and weight, but the production cost is basically the same.
Then some friends will ask, why so-and-so brand on the sale of thousands of dollars, the reason is very simple, the same factory produces the same type of sneakers, draw a hook and not draw a hook at least 10 times the difference in price, you are willing to spend that 10 times the money, is your own vanity choice, and other people have nothing to do.
Of course, the brand has his advantages, that is, he can lead the trend, he passed the design style to the OEM factories, factories are not afraid to copy immediately, the factories are generally after a few months to produce their own brand of the same frames, so that the brand can be completely alone in the market. This is similar to the clothing market, do not dare to taste.
How about it. Thank me. So even if you go to a big store to get glasses, don't pay more than 300, more than that is pure waste.
