prescription glacier glasses was created by mBraun
I have prescription sunglasses. I found over-the-glasses (OTG) sunglasses which are available at a couple local stores. Opticus comes up on a google search for prescription sunglasses. What are the options for purchasing prescription glacier glasses?

If this topic is covered in another thread, please help me find it.

Opticus made mine in 2006. They're still in great shape. Julbo warrantied earpieces in about 2012. Overall, I'm a happy camper.

Opticus wasn't cheap; if budget or loss/damage are dominant concerns, any sufficiently dark and UV-coated full-coverage sunglasses will do. Photons don't care about price.

I got mine from Opticus also. Very satisfied!  On phone staff worked with me as I wanted mini bifocals for maps, repairs and altimeter ,special tint etc. Not cheap but worth every penny. They even sent two sizes and types to try on. I settled on the Altice model . Upgraded my style from dorky REI as well at the same time!
