By Doctor Bob
After searching for 3 days for REAL prescription sunglasses, I was discouraged because the on-line prices were about the same as at the local optometrists, and those prices were what got me looking on-line to begin with. Then I discovered this strange offer of a clear fixed lens (bifocal) with replaceable clip-on "tints"/ shields. I liked the idea and took the plunge. As advertised, they contacted me directly after payment, asking for the prescription to be forwarded. What arrived 2 weeks later was just what was shown on the page. (Except there was a note on the Amazon page stating the one shield WAS reflective, and this is just not so.) The page shows a dark, a rose, a yellow, and clear shields, and this is what I got. The dark shield is polarized. Others are not.The bifocal reading section is not as high as on a standard reading bifocal, and I believe this enhances their usefulness in sporting activities. I do do some recreational shooting (I know,... "GASP".) putting serious holes through paper, and have not tried these with either scope or iron sights, but I expect that these will work better that my current standard reading bifocals which have left me tipping my nose up and down too many times to get the correctly focused sight alignment. I also bike, and jog, and do light weight lifting. The construction is rugged enough for all of these, and the clip-on shield actually takes a firm steady force application to attach and to detach. They can be worn "flipped up," if light intensity drops. These will not, I do not believe, become undone unless I am deliberately making a change.Now, I have to tell you that my wife calls them my "new birth control glasses," referring to an old black military issue pair I was handed 30 years ago. (Actually wasn't planning more children, anyway. If I were, I'd get a sleeker pair.) But, neither offended nor intimidated, I intend to put these to good use. (If others also comment unfavorably, I will just wear the dark covers so no one will recognize me.) Only serious concern is the scratch resistance of the "tints" over the course of the year, and I will report a problem if one is found. These are not glass, but they aren't priced like the glass ones either.
