Seems a bit daft really - does that mean that if someone bought a set of glasses with non-interchangable lenses, they couldn&#39;t get new lenses if their prescription changed?</p> <p>How do Nikon/Transition lenses compare to genuine oakley lenses in quality terms? My prescription is within Oakley&#39;s range I think (under +4.0), but if the others do lenses that are just as good, it may be worth looking into. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1783177 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:31:05 +0000 mike-at-dialledbikes 1783177@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Kevin1911 - policy may differ now, but when I asked D&amp;A and Vision Express about this a few years ago, they said Oakley UK will only fit Oakley prescription lenses bought at the same time as the frame. I assume that didn&#39;t/doesn&#39;t apply to frames with inter-changeable lenses though (e.g. Jawbones) because people might wanna buy different/spare sets of lenses.</p> <p>You could probably get non-Oakley lenses (e.g. Nikon, Transitions) done at any Oakley authorised opticians though. If you want ultra thin/high index lenses anyway, this is probably the better option as they will be able to go thinner/higher index than Oakley offer. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1783144 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:21:20 +0000 Houns 1783144@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Nice website, i wouldn&#39;t have a problem buying from them - In fact if it wasn&#39;t for the fact I&#39;ve brought 4 pairs in the last week I&#39;d be ordering from them now</p> <p>Kevin1911 - It shouldn&#39;t be a problem for an Oakley optician to do that </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1783128 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:18:34 +0000 Sidney 1783128@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Tempted after i lost my glasses the other week... </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1783088 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:08:30 +0000 kevin1911 1783088@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Anyone know how easy it would be to buy a set of these &#39;seconds&#39; and take them to an Oakley-dealing opticians to ask for prescription lenses to be made up? </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1782993 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 09:46:06 +0000 AdrianW 1782993@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>I&#39;ve never bought any of their seconds but I&#39;ve bought from this company before on a couple of occasions, never had any problems, they kept me informed and delivered next day. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/oakley-factory-seconds#post-1782476 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 06:56:27 +0000 jordie 1782476@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>There are loads of Shops like these in the states i have bought a couple<br /> of pairs from one.
