Default Prescription Shades


Found this site for Prescription shades SportsRx.
Anyone use these guys?

Nothing like a good pair of polarized polycarbonate prescription glasses with a nice wrap for wind and glare protection.

I have used ActionOptics in the past and been very satisfied. SportRx looks to have more of a selection.

I ordered my current riding glasses, WileyX, JP2, light adjusting poly, from SportRX. I was very pleased with their customer service; real easy to deal with.

Took my Wiley-X glasses to my Dr. He fitted them with Rx lenses.

I bought my Panoptics from Sport RX. They were very helpful. I sent in my rx to them along with my order for the Diablo glasses. The next day, I got a call from them saying that they could make the Diablo in my rx, but that I would not be happy with them because the distance between my pupils was too narrow for that model, and my peripheral vision would be distorted. They recommended a newer model with similar styling that would fit me better and produce better optics. I bought them instead and have been very happy with them.

I got some great wraparound glasses at Sears optical in Rx. Most places carry some nice styles and will fix you with a pair at reduced prices when you get your main ones done. I got a good deal at America's Best, just had the second pair made into sunglasses.

I bought some raptor rx glasses from sportrx several years ago. The first time I tried to put them on wearing a full face helmet, I broke off the right leg at the temple. I called them and told them and they gave me a new pair free, no questions asked, so I am now a firm believer that that they are a reputable company and will provide you with a good pair of googles. I am now more careful, , and I will buy my next pair with bi-focals (if they are avaibable) from them.
So my only gripe is, I NEED bifocals. If they can provide that, then I am hooked for life .
HTH,
Ron.

Hi;

Bought a pair of bolle Spiral wraps from them a couple of years ago. I still wear them when I ride. They can make wraps that others can't. Good prices, good service.
