Polarized is a "must" IMO... also although you can get away with glass for non-perscription (or a very mild correction) with strong perscription glasses like mine its just too heavy for daily wear.. I also wear glasses all day, every day & have for over 20 years, and the most important thing about plastic lenses is the company that makes them... they are NOT all the same! Seiko (the Japanese watch co.) makes about the toughest ones I've found & they are very hard to scratch compared to the cheapo lenses most places stick you with... I doubt they would survive the brillo test, but aside from that they hold up very well.

Classy!!! ;)



Actually, I've pretty much figured out now that I think I do want the 3190 005/48's.

Problem is.......as best I can tell.........SGH doesn't offer them. So noooooow........

Seeing as I can pick 'em up about a half-dozen different places online *and* they'd be about $40-$50 less than if I bought them from SGH even if the *did* carry them..............am I the "customer from hell" if I just return these for full credit???

I know that prescription and "polarized" is even more a topic (methinks) than glass/poly.

Do you have any feedback in regards to polarized lenses??

TIA!

Polarized are Superb if you like to go fishing!!:thumbsup:

Nice for winter time too. :)
