I have had my current ones for 12 years and they need replaced. They are some sort of adidas with inserts and 2 sets of lenses. I have found these, and they do varifocal which I now need. Thoughts ? sportsglasses.online

They are genuine Oakley lenses and I’m on my second set (due to prescription changing). I also bought ski goggles and an insert from them. Again, really happy with them and how they perform. I have purchased prescription glasses from glassesdirect before and they just don’t seem as good as ones from the high street opticians, whereas the RXSport ones are as good (IMO). (I have corrections for astigmatisms in both eyes - and I think that’s where the quality may differ...?)

He went for the inserts, but I think I will go for prescription lenses as being less faffy (albeit with less variability with the choice of shields of course.) He had broke one pair and the customer service getting a replacement was excellent.

I also have Adidas Evil Eyes from local opticians with the insert although the insert could do with updating to latest prescription.
