Used my vision insurance plan through work. Ordered 2 pair of $90 Oakley sport frame sun glasses with both dark and clear lenses. I wear them when riding and driving.

I got my Rx riding glassess from Harley. I love them. Just take in a current prescription and choose which ones you want. I ordered mine on a Sat and they came FedEx on the following Thurs.

Have 2 pairs of prescription Wiley-X with transition lenses. Got them at a local 20-20 vision store. Love them. The fit is good and their strap arrangement keeps them nice and snug. Good customer support. I got the second pair after the ear-piece broke on the first. They shipped a new piece to the vision store, who did the replacement. Now I have a backup. Not the least expensive, but worth it IMHO.

Wiley X Air rage, transition lens, and the gasket is removable so you can also use them when you are not riding.

My dad ordered a pair of WileyX Air Rage in a prescription, took about a month to get to him and the lenses were pretty scratched up, sent them back and told them to redo them, and the second pair were in good condition, but he thinks they might be the wrong rX..

was expensive as sin though, i dont remember the actual price but they weren't cheap.. but that's ok, because they're Wiley-X..shrapnel proof.

I just found a sturdy pair of riding sunglasses I liked and took them to my Optometrist.
He cut the progressive bifocal lenses I wanted to match.
And now I have nice Rx riding glasses.
