DOES NOT!

...i found it latter. ocean something. witch looks like most of the shit was "hipster" style.

so got a pair from zanni. Found a pair i like for $25. just a good basic pair for working in the yard!
 
I can't recall seeing problems with zenni; I only recall that someone claimed that one of those other sites was just as good.
 
Try Coastal.com, use FIRSTPAIRFREE code, and add tinting. I've ordered a few pairs thru their promotions. Excellent glasses. The jury is out on their customer service, but they've been popular lately due to their 'free' glasses. (s&h only, $15-ish) Not sure how the promotion will work when adding tinting etc.

yeah i looked at coastal. i gotta admit everything looked like hipster style. i just wanted a wrap around pair of sunglasses

edit; but my daughter seen like 5 pairs she "loved" heh
 
Sunglasses are very tricky to order online perscription wise. You really should have your eye spacing measured to make sure that the wrap of the lenses doesn't affect your vision. It's not the same as ordering regular glasses where the lenses aren't contorted as much.
 
I got the first free pair from Coastal, which I only use at home for my computer. Great deal, excellent quality, but I must admit, I couldn't find any free frames I would wear outside the house, and I am by no means a fashion freak.

Two-time customer of Zenni, happy both times. I tried once from goggles4u but they messed up the prescription and my eyes could not see. To their credit, they offered a refund, though as I recall they didn't pay for the return shipping.
