Townie Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 I'm unfortunate enough to wear prescription specs and to be ancient, so my eyes aren't as sharp as they were. I've held amber shooting glasses to my eyes and they made a big difference, so I'm thinking about amber or yellow clip ons. Any thoughts?

Tonka54 Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 I believe some of the well known high street opticians can supply prescription glasses tinted to your preference. This may be a better option for you rather than clip on ones, less to get in the way and no distortion between the lenses.

mpmilo Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 I have prescription lenses, and have found these perfect in varifocal and distance. I have the vermillion and yellow pairs. I did try clip on, but they felt to bulky. Just seen your SE London, so you may save on p+p as there in Croydon. https://www.optilabs.com/product/provision/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snap! I use these https://www.i-sunglasses.com/prescription/fit-over-glasses over my normal prescription glasses. I don't in fact have yellow (as I don't like them), but have both dark and anti glare. Be aware that they seem best if your normal glasses are relatively 'shallow' lenses. I do have some dedicated prescription 'shooting glasses', but find them heavy and (because I wear varifocal) significantly 'different' to my everyday glasses to be a small distraction. You get used to a particular pair of varifocals and any change (especially to the 'transition area) takes a little getting used to (in my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
