Ever had a properly made pair of plastic prescription shades that cost
more than $100?


I don't wear prescription glasses (yet), but I have tried some high
quality (over 100 bucks) plastic sunglasses. You will think I am nuts
but I ride a Harley and for some reason I have never felt comfortable
viewing through plastic lenses, even the expensive ones. There is a
distortion that I just don't like. I've noticed the same thing in some
glass lenses as well, but not to the same degree as the plastic. A well
made pair of lightweight glass sunglasses provide a non-distorted view
that I am comfortable with when riding.

Glass is funny when it breaks. Especially around eyes. That's why most
schools won't let kids play sports if they have glass lenses.


I don't play sports while wearing sunglasses.

I have never heard of a fisherman on Lake Erie suffering an eye injury
because of glass sunglass lenses while he/she was fishing.

Care to provide some proof otherwise?
