Ooops sorry I think what I had is short-sightness not long.

And about the glasses.Yeah the dealer contacted me that he already got the prescription lense holder stock now after 3 months or so.

yea that was an issue because i think it's much more expensive to replace prescription lenses than just the lenses itself if i just need to change colors.

Rudy's are as nice as they come and I use them for those days when I wear contact lenses ( which is becoming rarer),

My prescription is high enough that I cannot get prescription Rudy's ; At the moment the only glasses I have been able to find with an insert that will take my prescription are Bolle's.

The Parole is actually a fine glass, interchangeable lenses, etc but I don't find that they feel as solid as the Rudy's.

I suppose one of these days I will start snooping around again and see if I can get a high index lens in the rudy's. It will NOT be cheap though.

High index, progressive lens = big $$.

I have a strong prescription with tried Rudy's insert but insert was too close to my eyes and my eyelashes actually touched the lens. My reccommendation is look at Alpina eyewear . They were able to provide lens not inserts with adequate wrap around to fit my RX They are excellent glasses. Good Luck
