    Zenni optical, my friend. I order like 5 pairs at a time because I drop mine constantly, and it’s still cheaper than getting a single pair from the eye doctor. The lenses have been better too.

    Just don’t leave them in a hot car or the lens coating gets weird.

      I have Zenni glasses, they are great. But I still don’t want to get hit with glasses on. I have scars on my nose and side of head from that. Also I’m near sighted and need glasses to drive. Can’t be breaking my glasses.

        And as someone very farsighted, zenni makes them cheaper, not cheap. They’re still over a hundred bucks to get ones without optical distortion from too thick lenses

          My prescription lens and frames with all the bells and whistles are sub $100 if I go for the super cheap frames.

      No Oakleys, can’t do it. Not that I give a shit about brands, I just love how comfortable the Airdrops are. No nose pads, straight bows that grip to my bald head instead of uncomfortably wrapping behind my ears. Crazy lightweight.

        Ugh, that sounds exactly what I need. But it’s awkward for me to wear Oakleys because of my name.

        They have a pair of prescription sunglasses that have those features. The only drawback is the place where the corrective lenses fit can loosen over time.

        But I agree with paying for good quality sunglasses. I only get traditional lenses from them.
