I wear sunglasses all the time being on the boat in the bright sunlight all the time. My sunglasses were real expensive, but they last for five or more years. My indoor and night glasses are cheap glass. I don’t even get scratch resistant any more. I replace them every year.
I had corneal transplants in both eyes 15 years ago. My eyes surgeon is serious about me protecting my eyes by wearing good sunglasses.
Myeyedr is great. I really like them. I don’t know how you get such a good price on exams? Mine are like $39. You use a coupon?

CTJ:

Re: “I bought prescription sunglasses from them. They were pretty expensive.”
These days, I do what I can to save money. I hardly ever eat out. I do yardwork in clothes with holes. I have the cheapest possible phone. I'm planning on greatly expanding my food production and storage. I don't go to barbershops (my wife's crew cuts are as good as the ones professionals give, and they're free and don't take up my time.) Folks out here don't put much effort into impressing others. That's how I like it.

Buying glasses on the cheap seems like a good expansion on that policy. When I get them, if I'm happy with the frames and prescriptions, I'll order additional sets, perhaps even with the scratch resistant coating since I know that I'm hard on my glasses. On the other hand, at $5.95 a pair, it might make better economic sense to just get a new set every three months. After all, it's the glasses that are such a good deal. Options like scratch resistance might not be.
