Prescription cycling glasses

[Jason Skelton]

Hello

Does anyone have a recommendation for an optometrist where I can order prescription sunglasses for bike riding? 

ABC vision in hillsdale is where I went last time but that was over 15 years ago. 

Thank you!

[Mike Szwaya]

I get blank frames from Roka and get the lenses done by my local optometrist.

You can get a prescription from any optometrist or opthalmologist. Once I have that I shop on line. I like my Oakleys

I've had good luck with this company: https://www.sportrx.com/

You have options for a variety of tints.

I haven't used this company, but here is a West Linn company that also specializes in prescription sunglasses for cycling, etc.: https://www.sporteyes.com/eyewear-by-sport/cycling/cycling-and-biking-eyewear-with-prescription.html

Best,

Sight for Sport Eyes. They've never failed me. They also have great selection for higher prescription lenses. Store in Willamette area of West Linn. Website:

https://www.sporteyes.com/

Website is very well designed. The owner Shannen Knight is a board-certified dispensing optician with over 25 years of experience. If you need one-on-one help they can see you at their place of business. Currently my cycling glasses are Leader brand frames that can take stronger prescriptions. When I went in I went in they personally marked on the blank lenses exactly where to put the digital progressives, so that I can see clearly and crisply my cycle computer while in aerobars, and when looking at distance. By far best pair of glasses I've ever had.

Give them a call. They are always very helpul!

Sport Eyes A sight for sport eyesI took a long time to decide on a prescription goggle for my daughter. She was born with cataracts, her lenses were removed, and then developed glaucoma which caused very poor vision in her right eye before the glaucoma was found. Her eye doctor told me she would need a +7 strength for her goggles and when I first looked I could not even find + goggles. Finally I found ... www.sporteyes.com
