Italian magnetic clip-on's for my prescription glasses, cheaper than prescription sunglasses (not that I'm tight) just money efficient!
I got mine from Specsavers mate and they were always s£250 ish a pair. Vari-focal lenses, scratch resistant coating, plastic light weight lenses etc. etc. The reason I had to get shut of glasses was after a full day of testing, using the lower part of the lens to look at close items meant my neck and shoulders were in a right state and it couldn't continue so the only option was to get my prescription applied to my eyeballs and ditch the "bins"You could be right Tony,both Julie and myself wear

I had my eyes lasered 21yrs ago now, mainly because I was into gym and keep fit, running etc and my glasses kept steaming up and bouncing on my face when I was running.
The main reason though was that I took my boys swimming and I never wore my glasses in the swimming pool. On one visit I heard my youngest boy screaming as if he was in trouble so I looked for him in a moment of panic and I grabbed the wrong kid. I was mortified when I realised what I'd done, and it really hit home afterwards.
I could have left myself open to all sorts of accusations so decided then to have my eyes sorted. Back then, I think I paid £350 per eye but it's been well worth it to have 20yrs without glasses.

Wish I could get lasered but that aint going to work for me.
And that's a real shame mate. As I've told you before I'm making the best of my eyes for as long as I can.

Prescription for me too - On to my second or third pair of Oakley's but can't remember which kind - Polarised Variofocals on high density plastic (thinner lighter lenses) - not at all cheap but worth it. Was put off he mirror finish though - looks great but it wears off with finger prints etc.
My prescription has changed enough to justify changing again soon. Thats my story anyways.
The expense means that I have to get a few years wear out of them - just too expensive to change each year (or month) like some people.

Need glasses for reading and buy vari vocals and is what I put on in the morning and sometimes wear em all day. Needed new sun glasses so got prescription ones that are all singing all dancing so don't need to change em in the sunlight, went for night anti glare this time as well, don't ask me how much I'm still wincing Still thinking about lasered.
