Mr. Silver,
My wife asked me to chime in. I don't think you would have any problem. The glasses fit close to face so you can glance to the side without moving you head. I've been really impressed with my Tifosi glasses. The frames are very reasonable and available at many bike shops. Since we live in a small town, Tifosi sent me several pairs of glasses to try before making my choice for my RX lenses. I just returned everything when I was done. Since I need a stronger prescription the lenses use a special technology to achieve good vision in a wrap. That said they are AWESOME. Before I wore Smith glasses with a RX insert, my new Tifosi's are a huge improvement. They ended up around $300 because of the lenses, but still competitively with a regular pair of eye glasses.
I had my eyes checked, told them I was ordering some bike glasses, and they took all the measurements. I faxed everything to Tifosi and my glasses showed up in about 2 weeks it seems. Any Tifosi dealer can order RX perscriptions, but I have a friend who has a bike shop about 10 minutes from Tifosi's HQ, so he processed the payment part of the transaction. The glasses are then drop shipped. They don't have a direct order process, and some dealers are clueless, but my buddy knows his stuff. I can get you contact info if you are interested.

I can snap another of the glasses from the rear so you can see the lens. Sorry about the long post, I'm a little more windy then my wife.
Good Luck - John
