Riding Glasses - Prescription Lenses.

[Caerus]

Any one know what optomotrists do cyclist galsses in CT blauwberg area

 

 

I would say go to Classic eyes, they have been more then helpful with all my requests and questions. They were even willing to do some R&D for me.

I use Adi Evil Eyes - cost me a little under R2k, and every 2 years when I update my prescription the optometrist does my inserts for me really cheap.

 

The only problem I have with them is that sometimes sweat drops between the insert and the lense... and then you can't clean it till you stop And sometimes when it's cold the darm things fog up - mo use the evil eye lenses are anti fog, but the inserts are normal But you get used to it being close to your eyes... and oh ja - the lenses do start to peel for no reason after a year and a half

 

Can't wear contacts, so this is the best solution I've found. Tried to look at Oakleys but I was quote R5k + for their RX range... that's a bit too much IMO.

 

Kieran - I'm gona have a look at your when we train for the DC (I see we are riding in the same team B) )

 

 

This may seem like a stupid question, but with the adidas range of prescription frames. Would it make a difference wearing the "running or golf" specific frames for cycling, personally I dont see it making a difference. The reason im asking is the "running" glasses(Adizero & adivista) do not need an optical insert, you can have the whole lens as a presciption which are also interchangeable. Shape wise and fit are pretty much the same as the "cycling range".

 

Any feedback would be great.
