I brought three pair of glasses with me from the states. I have friends who went to Chetumal for eye care.

Datasavant - could not tell you about US comparison as we are from Canada.
Perhaps phone or email some of the optometrists in Belize with your prescription and get a price.

I just bought glasses here in the states with no insurance. Two pair, non-designer frames and eye exam cost me about $ 140.00 US. With insurance it was going to cost (out of pocket) $ 168.00. Go figure?
