Specs on the cheap

A friend of mine is looking for an optometrist with a good selection of reasonably-priced (i.e. inexpensive) frames. Anyone have any recommendations? Davis would be ideal, but can be anywhere T-accessible.

I bought a pair of glasses for $400 bucks in Harvard Square, and got really lousy service. So the next pair of very similar lenses and frames, I bought at BJs for $80. The opticians at BJs were extremely helpful and responsive. I don't think you need a membership to use their optical service, but even if you do, you can get a one-day pass for free. It's not very subway accessible, but there is probably a bus. It's not far from Wellington Circle.
