I’ve had a pair of Randolph Engineering aviators for the last 20 years, expensive, but good quality ‘glasses.

Quoted from their website regarding the lenses: “All of our lenses absorb 98-100% of harmful ultraviolet rays and allow a range of 12-18% of visible light to pass through; the ideal comfort level for most wearers. Our mineral glass lenses are exceptionally scratch-resistant, and will provide you with absolute distortion-free clarity. They’re also precision ground and chemically tempered for impact resistance that exceeds ANSI Z-803 standards”.

Julian Wilson ltd edition Oakley Holbrooks and and a pair if Oakley Two Face for me.

I hate the skinny aviator’s purely because I’m an oaf and would break them within seconds.

Did you get them from an opticians or order online for the prescription. I’m after some prescription ones but refuse to pay silly money in a high street retail store.

We own the opticians and they are still expensive at what i can buy them for…….

Polycarbonate is a cap material for spectacle lenses. You can’t beat glass from the likes of Rayban and Maui Jim. Optically better. Main problem is its no good really for sports sunglasses with the risk of breaking.
