I also wear polarizied Ray Ban Aviator and they work great. On my second prescription with the same frames. I carry a pair of regular glasses in my windshield bag for bars and resturants. The Ray Bans are dark.

I had lasik surgery so don't need glasses.
I have noticed that even the cheapest drugstore rack sunglasses seem to be polarized. I've never had a problem with polarized - I like the glare removal.

This thread is very similar to one on a sailing forum I've been known to frequent; sailors swear by (and at) their glasses since many times they need to look at water and an LCD screen for wind/plotter instruments. I wear the same glasses riding as I do sailing, a pair of hardware store dark safety glasses. They're dark enough for bright days, they wrap around, they reduce UV by 99.4%, and they're cheap to replace.

I will buck the trend here.
I hate polarized prescription sunglasses. I have been using a pair for a little over 2 years. No problem with riding the bike, but they are a PITA for everything else. They block out a lot of images on LED screens, such as cell phones,cameras, monitors,store charge card screens, etc.
I have been cussing these glasses out since the day I bought them. I will be getting new glasses pretty soon and will toss the polarized pair.

You are right about the LED screen. There is always drawbacks for everything.
