Prescription sunglasses for sailing

[Hacker]

Tried contacts as I was a fencer and glasses wouldn't fit inside my mask and steamed up. Hated them. Have an issue with putting things into my eye and also found that my ability to switch focus was not as good (or my perception of it). I also umpire hockey so the ability to switch focus is crucial. Long term option is probably to go for a lens replacement but am a bit squeamish about fiddling with my eyes (and I work for the NHS so should know better)

Judging by the prices I would say that there must be more than a few opticians here. I have the unfortunate misfortune to require vari-focals and so my polarised Warefarers cost over £700.

The last pair went over the side when they got snagged on a shroud somewhere off Jersey

Don't buy "Police" sunglasses the hinges on mine corroded with the salt spray, they don't use the correct stainless steel. I emailed them about the problem and did not get a reply.
