I picked up my glasses today. I got Varilux progressive bifocals with neutral grey sun sensor lenses. I also have a 2X prisim. I'm not quite sure what that means except that both eyes don't see things on the same plane. This is the first time with prisim adjustments.

The glasses are neutral grey, and today with the top down they seemed fine. Today was overcast so I'm anxious to see how I like the color on a real sunny day. I think neutral grey is a good color for me.

I am going to have sunglasses made as the sun sensors don't work with the top up or in my 4Runner. I'm going to wait a week to make sure the prescription is correct.

I like grey on a VERY sunny day - otherwise I believe the extra contrast in the Maui Jim rose is the ultimate. It's a bit more subtle than the Serengeti lens.

I have Ray Ban Predators black lens, Maui Jim gold lens, and Bucci rose colored lens. I prefer the Bucci Rose lens. They just make everything look?????Rosier!
I found the Maui Jims at the beach. Blew me away when I found out what they cost.

Dave

Thanks for the info. I didn't know what prism was. I had never heard of it. Thanks.
