    Prescription Sunglasses Help

    Does anyone here know of a website that I can get some Oakley prescription sunglasses made at a reasonable price? I've done some checking and the best I can find is $370 shipped. Your help will be much appreciated

    I'm going to Mexico in 2 weeks, I'm sure I can find some for 30 bucks. Oakley might not be spelled right on the glasses tough....

      If you get contacts then you wouldn't need prescription Oakleys but just Oakleys.....just an FYI. ;)

        ...So live, that when thy summons comes to join
        The innumerable caravan, which moves
        To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
        His chamber in the silent halls of death,
        Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
        Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
        By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave
        Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
        About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

                  I was actually being a jerk..but that is expected.

                  BTW.....I too have an astigmatism but you have it really bad since I am able to wear contacts!! Yeh they do cost more than a normal contact but its better to pay a little more and wear contacts then to wear coke bottles on my face!!!

                    Jim's point is a good one astigmatism makes for some thick glasses. Surprised Oakley frames could work for them. One of my best friends had awful astigmatism and still got contacts. Not cheap, and not perfect vision, but changed his life.

                      Also depends on how strong the perscription is. If you don't need a strong one then you don't need a thick lense. Also the thicker plastic frames can take a thicker lense, so it could be ok.

                        My vision isn't all that bad so IDK what to do. I dont NEED glasses but it would be nice to see everything clearer while playing sports, hunting, etc. Looks like Lenscrafters is having a sale so I'll check it out.

                          It's worth it. I barely need my glasses, but didn't want to put up with fuzzy vision on a nice day when I'm used to better.
