I need to get a new set of prescription shooting glasses, and would like to get "polycarbonate glasses" as they offer the best protection. As I did last time, I will have an eye test done to get a prescription for the distance from my eye to the front sight. Can someone recommend a good source for prescription glasses? They certainly don't need to be "fancy", but they should have a frame that's good for shooting (some frames even have side "plates" for more protection).
I also don't want to waste money needlessly. A company in Italy bought up most of the places people used to go to for glasses, and with no competition, raised the price by a huge amount. If you're not aware of that, check this link:
I refuse to have anything to do with that scheme, and buy my glasses overseas.
Assuming that there are specialized shops in the USA that provide shooting glasses for a fair (not inflated) price, are there any that some of you have already bought from, and would recommend?
