Yikes! I thought my prescriptions were expensive! Mine are a pair of Calvin Klein wraparound nylon frames that cost about $300 with my progressive lenses in a gray polaroid. And it just so happened that CK made a wrap around frame.... I have lost one pair of these, but I had them cloned (for another $300) because I like them so much. And yes, in my last job, working on Lake Washington and Sammamish, I feared losing them, and one pair is in Sammamish probably at a depth of 75-90 feet. My thought for shades is to go to an optomitrist that specializes in shades if you wear prescriptions. I do, and they are so much smarter than the average shop at selling what you need, because they can help you with the tinting. Rob -- Mountlake Terrace, WA USA
