Caerus Posted August 10, 2012 Share Again I say this: "You don't need them. I ride with normal glasses. No problems at all" I tried this, ended up having to replace the lenses in the normal glasses, plus eneded up having to get prescription riding glasses anyway. I would not recommend it.

The Ghost Posted August 10, 2012 Share What did these cost you Richard....I am in the same situatiion....thanks *Hijack off* Good question.I waited for this year to do it, and did it through my medical aid.They submitted the claim etc, and I just paid in like R300.They give a great deal if you buy the frame and lenses there, I think it all came in at R4k or so - maybe less.
