For the last 3 years I have gone to Los Algodones, MX for dental care and last year for prescription glasses. When I was in Yuma area in January, I went for dental but my eyeglasses were fine at the time, so didn't replace those. Now about a week ago I am having trouble with near vision. I am very nearsighted and have progressive lenses. The worst part is, I cannot read the exposure data, etc. when looking into my camera viewfinder which is very problematic as I do a lot of photography.
I am now in the Tucson area and was considering going to Nogales, MX. In doing some initial research online, it doesn't seem as "user friendly" as Los Algodones. For one thing, the offices seem to be a greater distance away, so walking may not be feasible. I wouldn't want to drive over - are taxis or some form of public transportation readily available once across the border into MX?
Has anyone been to Nogales for medical/dental/eyeglasses, or just for general tourism? I would like to hear your experience and recommendations.
Thanks,
Debra
