A pair of polaroid sunglasses bought for €14.95 from Halford's for driving. In other situations I don't see the need for sunglasses.

Two pairs of cheap knock-off Wayfarers, one pair black, the other pair tortoiseshell. If they break or the lenses get scratched, I'm not going to cry about it, as I can just buy another pair of them on eBay. I'd love to get a real pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers, but to paraphrase Jeff Foxworthy, you buy an expensive pair of sunglasses, you lose them almost immediately. Get a pair of cheap ones and you just can't seem to lose them.

You'd be surprised.


My favorite pair are my Rayban Polarized wraps.

The other pair are Prada. Great coverage but no polarization  Sad

Whenever cheap pairs that are polarized, dark lensed, and wrap-around. It's not worth spending more than $20 on sunglasses because their inevitably get scratched, sat upon, or lost.

I have a $16 pair that I got in Las Vegas last year that I use for riding the scooter. They have tiny little words on the bows that say "NASCAR." I have another $18 pair that I bought at Walgreen's when the NASCAR ones got a scratch right in the view of view.

Prescripted ( -1.25 left, -0.75 right ) brown Zeiss glasses. Roughly $700. For seeing at distance.

Some cheap plastic thing ( +1.00 / +1.00 ) for reading in the sun, probably $10 in a super market.

That's how it goes when getting old.

Getting old isn't always so nice. But then, have a look at the only alternative....

Then not too long time ago a found in a drawer with old stuff my good $250 1988 vintage Ray-Ban glasses. Since they don't bend the light rays, then I can use them only for looking at 3 feet distance with the left eye and 4 feet with the right eye. Which doesn't happen very often.  cool

Currently in my inventory:

Serengeti Hurikanu
Used for flying and driving mostly. I'll also wear them when I'm in my dress uniform and need sunglasses.

No Name "Fishing" Sunglasses from Wal-Mart
Used mostly for any outdoor activity where I might lose or damage my Serengetis.

Safety Glasses
These are used when I'm outdoors and need eye protection when working with power tools and when riding my scooter.
