 You talking about those little reading lenses that kinda glue in, Bob?  
Always assumed they'd un-glue in a marine environment.  Not so? >>

Hi everybody, this is Sandy Kramer, formerly sandykayak and now using

To: Peter O - will this mess up the Who's Who list?

I need prescription glasses to see better (and sharper) at the long distance 
range (of course I do need reading glasses for close-ups !).  Polarized 
fishing glasses won't help that problem.

I got some plastic frame sports glasses from an optometrist and had my 
prescription filled (not the bifocal though).  I saved money by having them 
done in Costa Rica, but the frames were imported from the US.  I was 
surprised no one had mentioned them.  They have a tight adjustable elastic.  
Sorry, don't have time to look for them - in a gear bag, I suspect - so I 
can't tell you the brand.  The nylon bag says REP 2.
