I can't comment on polarized glasses, as they've never impressed me, but whenever the talk gets around to perscription sunglasses, I have to plug my source: http://zennioptical.com Hard to beat prescription glasses starting at $8.00! Add an 80% tint for an extra $5. They don't offer polarized lenses, but for another 5 bucks they'll put on an anti-glare coating, although I have not tried it. They say the plastic they use is above industry standard and I can say I've been very impressed with their low propesity to scratch. YOU CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO BUY THESE! I have no affiliation, but I do have a vested interest in keeping them in business, as I tend to loose my glasses to Davey's Locker more than I care to admit. Best of all, you don't have to run to the optometrist every year to get a new prescription to replace you're lost specs! Mark Sanders -----Original Message----- G'Day, The optician tells me I need reading glasses and that spectacles to correct for astigmatism would help with .long distance vision. This doesn't surprise me as I can no longer read the symbols on my VHF radio and increasingly find it difficult to discern a lumpy sea on the horizon. By the same token my paddling buddies tend to spot whales and identify birds ahead of me. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
