Also, Maui Jim absolutely stands behind their products – my wife, who is very 
hard on sunglasses, has gotten at least three replacement pairs free from MJ in 
circumstances where the could certainly have raised a beef, but did not.  Very 
good customer service, and very, very nice products.

No financial or other interest of any kind in MJ.

Jim, I couldn't agree more.  It is your EYES!  Patrick, you already had 
cataract surgery so you know your eyes are vulnerable.  Protect them!  
By-the-way, your replacement lens implants have UV protection built in.  Your 
primary focus now should be wind, dust and general debris protection.  But 
don't cheap out.   Quality is always worth it in the long run.  I opted for a 
pair of Maui Jim's.  Not only do they protect they actually enhance vision.  
Mine cost a couple hundred bucks but they've held up to daily use for almost 
three years and they are still going strong.

I've spent my entire career at microscopes and have taken care of my eyes 
(don't understand people who don't use filters when looking through a 
microscope).  I've always taken care of my eyes.  I drive in Serengetis, 
fish in Smiths and Costas.  I have no worries bicycling in Smiths.

I've had good luck with Sunclouds. They're a sub-brand of Smith, the lens 
quality is really good, and they tend to be pretty light and comfortable in 
my opinion. I don't really trust the UV protection on the cheap knockoffs. 
REI sells them, as well as lots of internet vendors.

don't play when it comes to something I wear all the time, so I spend the

Dude, it's your eyes. Don't be half-assed. Optometrists will have a UV 
meter, which is the only way you can be sure the glasses are blocking UV. 
And try them on in person so you know they fit.

2014-12-11 Thread Patrick Moore 
Thanks for all the suggestions; much to follow up on. The comments on UV
protection lead me to believe that it might be best to buy a brand name.

I've got a pair of "Tifosi" transitional lens shades that were cheap (~$35)
at Nashbar and they're fine. I see that this marque is often on sale in the
N catalogue. Question: Do these have adequate UV protection? How does one
know?

If Tifosi is a good choice, does anyone have suggestions for the best
Tifosi model?

(I want 2 pairs because one is always somewhere else when I need it.)

Thanks again.
