I've had a pair of ONO's with readers and a pair of Costas C-Mates with readers and the ONO's fit my face better the
Costas don't feel like they'll stay put , So I've never used them , I may look at Maui Jims next time I get my glasses replaced .
Hate putting out all that coin for them in prescription .If you are going to fight, fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah's ark and brother, it's starting to rain!

i've had good luck out of revos, the polarization is quite good and they fit my big ole noggin. also take a look at http://www.fuselenses.com for high quality replacement lenses on the inexpensive side for almost every pair of sunglasses. i can't tell one bit of difference personally and i'm quite picky about sunglasses.

I sit/step/lie/fall on every pair of glasses I have so I'm still looking for inexpensive but good ones. lol - not much luck yet. In the meantime - the 5 dollars walmarks ones are what I'm making do with.

I'm pretty destructive also, so I order wraparound NEMESIS safety glasses. Lately they have gone up to $12.50, but still worth the price. I get them with readers, being an old fart. They have the added benefit of being protection from flying tackle.
Until I scratch them up or otherwise mistreat them they have good optics. I used to work in demolition and mining, so I'm kind of accustomed to safety glasses and don't feel "right" without them.

If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

You are right Carl F on the aviator series glasses which are not polarized. A polarized lense will wipe out the gps and multifunction displays in an aircraft much the same as when looking at a tablet or phone.

I wear the saltwater angler polarized sunglasses I buy them at bass pro shops or my local tractor supply they aren't expensive but they do the trick and if I loose them or damage them they're not expensive to replace

Cool. I ordered a couple of pairs. Thanks for the heads up. I can't even buy decent readers for that price.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
