i have a nifty pair of Bolle sunglasses that Ive had for a year or so now (because i was a retard and lost the last pair in a small pond) and when i was at the hurricanes game last week, one of the lenses popped out. I put it back in, and bumped into something and lost the lens again

but ive got the frame hangin here with the other lens in it, and i just dont wanna toss it out. what kind of freak am i? :(

i looked around, couldnt find any easily for the pair i have :-/

maybe i could email bolle and see if they sell replacement lenses? i got a feelin id get raped or something...

but you know what? the last pair i had, the lens fell out a few times, and its happened with this one, and if a replacement is pricey...ill just go for bust and buy some serengetis again. those are awesome, but my ex broke my last pair (wish i had it on video, she had to work to ruin them)

The best bet is to get the cheapest sunglasses ever. If you get expensive ones you WILL lose or break them. It always works like that. :p

cheap ones arent worth the few dollars you pay for them. i work outside 2 or 3 afternoons a week and like good sunglasses when im out or driving.

Funny, I found that it works the opposite. Even if you're dumb enough to trust your eyes to crappy shades than can cause more damage than nothing at all, there's no incentive to protect the glasses. If you buy good ones that set you back a few dollars you care enough about them to protect them. My Ray Bans are about 15 years old and the Bolles I use for golf are 8 years old.

It might be time for a different brand. If you're losing lenses, the glasses are poorly made. I'd throw them in a drawer, and you may luck into a lens somewhere.
