Jurgens Smit Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 I bought a spare lens from Complete Cyclist in bedford. Can't remember what it costs though. Otherwise any store stocking oakley will be able to order.

Skinnyone Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Most retailers are clueless or just plain lazy.sadly when it comes to selling Oakley products, to get replacement parts - lenses is a nightmare! their backup is shocking...once i tried for 3 months to get some lenses for a client!
Frosty Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 If you ever want Polarised lenses, then try Revant Optics - they're USA-based and much cheaper than local. Unfortunately, they just don't do transition/photochromic lenses.

CAAD4 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 was checking it out this morning. Will look at getting something new from them, prices not too bad. I ordered some polarised lenses from Revant Optics in December, after being quoted nearly 2k locally. Man these guys are awesome and would not let me go, until I finished the transaction, having left the items in my basket for two days. They offered me two discounts and delivered promptly to my holiday destination in the USA. If you are considering an order to SA, I would be keen to join in and split shipping with you. The polarised lenses are just great.
Cav' Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum/user/88353-yusufptl/ He sells them, think its R950 or R1000 good service and yes they're authentic.
Neverfit Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 I am also looking at some prescription glasses and have a question surrounding the Polarized lenses. what does hubland say? Should I go for Polarized or not?Apparently I cannot get photocromatic and polarized...? some help will be appreciated.
Grease_Monkey Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Give Yusuf a shout. I bought my Jawbreakers as well as extra lenses from him. He ships to anywhere and is cheaper than anywhere else I have tried. 078 600 2717

First need to get sorted with this Photochromic lens or a new pair of Radar EV's, only problem is they are R2900 a pop
