What do you that have to wear eye glasses do / use? I have a prescription pair of sun glasses I wear but even those have a tendancy to bouce a little on my head and after a long day the eye strain can give me a headache. Just wondering what others are doing.
Thanks

I don't wear prescription glasses myself, but I know that many of the riding glasses (with the foam inserts) can be fitted with prescription lenses. The riding glasses I have also come with a strap. I remove the bows and snap the strap on and wear them like googles (keeps them from bouncing around).

I wear my regular transition lense glasses, and I don't seem to have a problem. Then again, I have a windvest installed on my bike. All I can recomend to you, would be get a windshield or windvest if you don't already have one. If you do have a windshield ,you might want to try and adjust it a little to get the best possible results to eliminate any buffeting. Usually if your glasses are bouncing it's caused by wind buffeting. 8)

I wear Oakley Juliets (Prescription) when I ride right now...but wouldn't recommend them because of the cost. I am looking into a set of Wiley X riding glasses with transition lenses. My regular glasses suck for riding at night.

cost me 117$ to figure out that you have to wear glasses in Minnesota. Eye-protection-required was the ticket. heads up incase anyone wasn't aware of this.

you don't have to wear eye protection in ND? i wish the fines in MN were like ND, had a seat belt in MN and it was 95$$
