Zenni only seems to carry clip-on polarized sunglasses (normal prescription glasses with a clip on polarized shield), not polarized prescription sunglasses themselves.

Any good sites or local places to get a cheap pair?

Under $100?

Prescription?
I dont know of any online prescription places, but walmart has cheap stuff.
Dont know if they offer polarized shade as well.

I got mine from some dinky little outfit in the desert when I was stationed there.


Really need an eye exam one day.

I bought mine ~4 years ago at Sears when they were running some special.

Good quality, comfortable, and affordable.

I know Zenni has tinting, but they don't have polarized.

I think mine were right around $100. I was burning up the rest of the money in my flex account near the end of the fiscal year. In fact, they're the best glasses I've ever owned - my vision is much better with those sunglasses than with my regular prescription lenses.

I believe the scratch coating at zenni is also a polarize as well, the use two different coatings I know of for sure, one is for the scratches, and Im almost 100% its the polarization is/was the 2nd. I know its there I will be getting my prescription sun glasses from. ive had mine now for 2 years, almost 3, never a problem, or even scratch on the lenses, I love that place, even got my oldest glasses from there and going to be getting my wife's next.

If not zenni, check the other places listed in the glasses thread in Hot deals, maybe the other 2 cheap glasses places do the coating if zenni isnt,
