Note that the FAQ on EBD's website lists their lens material as "CR39
Polycarbonate".  CR39 and polycarbonate are not the same thing.  For
an explanation of the different common lens materials, go here:

It appears EyeBuyDirect uses CR39 for all their lenses.  It's a fine
material, and has the best optical quality, but don't order from them
if you require the impact resistance of polycarbonate (ie. for kids'
glasses or safety eyewear).  The exception to this may be their
"sport" glasses -- I have no idea what the outer shield on those is
made of.  It looks like the inside lenses will still be CR39, though.
