I am seriously thinking of getting some of these:


Running with regular glasses is just annoying. That’s why contacts are usually my savior for all activities. However, especially in the spring, my eyes are easily irritated by contacts. I also just feel more comfortable in glasses in general.
When cycling, I have to wear sunglasses anyway to avoid the bugs and other junk trying to get into my eyes. The wind also will dry my contacts out…plus, let’s just face it: they make you look cool.
The worst bike ride ever was the time when I forgot my contacts and tried to wear my regular glasses under my sunglasses. Can you say disaster?
Since I’m scared to death undecided about getting Lasik surgery, I need another solution. So I’m on the search for some prescription sunglasses. I saw a big display at my optometrist’s office for sports glasses and would like the following features:
- Lenses that adjust to the amount of sunlight present
- Lightweight
- Cool looking
- Won’t break the bank
- No movement without being too tight
If anyone has experience with these types of lenses, please give me some input!

I own 2 pairs of nike (same pair) prescription. Stylish, comfortable. All big name/chain optical stores I went to told me it was not possible to do sport glasses because of the angle of the lens. It was not until I found my local optician who will make his own lens that I was finally able to get sporty sunglasses! My lenses don’t adjust but I will wear them in low light and see just fine. Frame cost$90 and don’t remember the lens cost (maybe $100). Good luck!
