LOL! All sunglasses reduces glare, and the glare is usually from sunlight.

Polarized sunglasses reduces EXTRA glare of sunlight from flat/smooth surface. Hence, it provides additional glare reduction. The article explains it well smile.gif

Skyline's quite polular for their wear-over shades. Was it a wear over shade you bought?

Nah, Rm 80 with polarized feature is a pretty good deal, and it should be safe cause I think the lenses gives 100% UV protection! smile.gif

Prices on the oakley website and the prices in Malaysian retail is totally different. Polarized lenses have recently shot up in price, so expect quite a fair bit for it. smile.gif

Hi guys, i have the Adidas on Par golf sunglasses. While i was just moving my hair to the side just few seconds after wearing the sunglasses, my palm touch the lens and it broke in the middle. There was no force applied at all. Anyway, if i'm not mistaken there is a lifetime warranty for either the lens/frame. Anyone can clarify this?

Thank you.

Yea, i just found out. Warranty only if the coating layer on the lens peels off.

I still have no idea how mine can just snap in the center. cry.gif

Btw, anyone has any idea how much the lens alone will cost?

It was fine with vigorous activities for nearly 3 years +. I thought of trying to put elephant glue first since it's quite minor. If that fails, new lens. cry.gif

It's probably due to constant pressure effect on the middle over the 3 years.. since it's a once piece anyway, the force was probably directed to the middle. New one piece lenses are expensive, that's if you can even find someone willing to take them in for you. IMHO, start looking for a new pair! smile.gif

yaya..that impossible to get the genuine lense of Ray-Ban in market because this is it company policy..they only sell the all sunglass, once the lense crack, they will recommend you to buy a new one....

1) Is there a way to differenciate a good and a bad sunglasses?
No? We just put our $ on trust isnt it?

2) Is HOYA glasses good for those with eye sights issue? If not, share with us why not?


Added on May 15, 2009, 12:00 pmOh god. I've just realized that I was directed into this masculine zone...

How much is it? If it's more than Rm200, i think it's better to get a new one. I bought the sunglasses for Rm400+ after discount. It was Rm990 at most outlets before discount at the time i bought but i managed to get it cheap through my friends mum who used to work in Adidas. brows.gif

1) yes you could differentiate between bad and good sunglasses, the frame of bad sunglasses are usually not rigid, the entire construction of the pair feels "cheap" and as though they will easily break with a little force.. bad lenses do not provide any UV protection from sunlight which can cause problems, see the first post on that..

2) im not familiar with hoya glasses.. is it a glasses brand or a shop name?
