Bummer. Hope you stop hurting quick!
Yeah, Corsair, it's Specialized that makes those glasses. I want some, but I don't dare try 'em on in case they fit well and look half-decent. They are pricey, but no more so than a lot of the Smith/Oakley/Adidas/Nike/insert-big-name-here models.
Oakley M Frames. (About $95 for the frames and $45 for each lens)You can choose a color and design and then start collecting the lens you need. The lens come in different shapes and sizes depending on your face and the coverage you want. I have a dark grey, brown/amber, yellow and clear lens. They are easy to interchange and if one lens gets scratch, you can go out and buy a new one. I love my Oakley M-Frames!
Good sunglasses, regardless the brand, is a must for cycling. Protect your eyes, better vision and visibility. A good, dark grey polarized lens will save you from headaches and eye strain. I like the M Frames and other interchangable glasses (even Performance has a fairly decent sunglasses with 3 lens I think for around $70) so you can match the lens to the lighting. I wear yellow lens on gray days or in the evening, dark grey on bright, sunny days, brown/amber for overcast or variable light. Clear on rainy or very dark days.
Amber/brown or yellow works great in alternative light.Quote:

I recently found some great glasses that have interchangable lenses. They are "Moab" and I think they are made by Smith. Excellent for inexpensive contact-lense wearers like myself. I got them on-line and on sale. There is a clear, light orange, and a regular dark lense. I think I paid maybe $40.
I know of a great resource but feel a bit sheepish plugging it here. E me off the list and I will send the link.
