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? |

You mean high quality plastic. |

Seems like all had some level of distortion or aberration. Nothing compares to glass IMO. RCE |

Glass does not. If you wanna do polarized right, go to an eyeglass place and ask them to make you a pair of polarized shades with no prescription. |

Yep, and I have no problem spending up to $200 for good sunglasses. |

Any suggestions? Maui Jim. Go to sunglass hut, pick out your style, then buy 'em on ebay. Too damned expensive retail. jps |

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. RCE |
