I need to upgrade my crappy sunglasses now that we are back into
boating. The last nice pair I had ended up in Lake Erie 2 years ago
while on a cruise on our friends Lyman.

Who makes a decent pair of polarized sunglasses with glass lenses?
I think my last pair was a Sunglass Hut proprietary brand......no
longer available.

My eyes are pretty sensitive to sunlight. Any suggestions?

Glass? You don't mean glass. You mean high quality plastic.

Why not glass?

Ditto. I've tried sunglasses made with different types of plastic
lenses. Seems like all had some level of distortion or aberration.
Nothing compares to glass IMO.

I agree.

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

Uh...I had lasix six years ago. No need for Rx.

That's beside the point. I've had plastic prescription shades for 20
years. No distortion. Perfect. And, you can get them made FLAT. No
prescription. They'll be thicker than ready-made shades. No distortion.
Any perceived difference in weight is imaginary, based on the need to
complain about something.

You are still a self important ass.

Come on Bert, give it a break already. This NG has generally been without
insults and flaming.......join in on the new and improved version. Give it
a go.

Why do you suppose plastic is pretty much a requirement for people playing
sports? Heavy lobbying by the plastics industry? Or, could it be based on
experience with the way glass shatters?
