I am using prescribed glasses since I was in 3rd grade. I feel like I'm wasting money when I spend more than 1000 INR (around 15 USD) on glasses. I can't imagine spending 700 USD on glasses. I can live on that money for about 4 months with that money.

People spending $700 are buying it from a store that has to pay US rent, US employers paing US rent. You need to adjust for local wages.
