It's only $300 dollars and I never pay for glasses again.
It pays itself off in 3 years.
Maybe I can 3d print frames too. 
At a glance it looks like they only have 3 different strengths and no provisions for astigmatism. My interest is in fine tuning my prescription in increments of 0.25 as well as fine tuning my astigmatism in several degree increments so it wouldn't be of much use to me.
Edit: For anyone else curious about doing this on a budget, check out "trial lens sets", it's just a case of a couple hundred lenses you can get for around $200 that includes close to what looks like every prescription under the sun, including astigmatism and prism(!!). You're be manually swapping, stacking, and keeping track of every strength but it has strengths as low as 0.12 and looks like they include frames to pop them into.
