Oakley Straight Jacket - Prescription

"would l love to know if I could buy the lenses separately , as they get scratched and I now have loads of spare frames ! Otherwise service was pretty smooth."

"...so I can wear my new specs!!. I agree with the other two reviewers. I got prescription these shades prior to a skiing holiday and they worked great. They are too dark to wear for skiing on shady days, but that darkness was my choice. Lovely and crisp images. There's noticeable misting when first putting them on cold - but that's because the wrap-around is very close and I must be gently steaming. Don't wipe them - just wait for it to pass. It was great to get my choice of strength, my prescription and polarisation in the same glasses. Wish I had added the back surface anti-reflection, but reflections are only noticeable in darkened surroundings with bright outside - e.g. in the cable car. Not a problem when out in the sun. I had the same issue as the previous reviewer that I didn't see that a case was included in the basic price - you could make that clearer in the catalogue. But you emailed to check whether I really wanted a second case. So overall, the purchase process was reassuring, with double-check of prescription and accessories. Bulky when folded - unsuitable for pocketing, but I guess that comes with them being robust and relatively large frames to fit my head. Very pleased overall."

"Just a quick note to say that I am absolutely delighted with the Oakley Straight Jacket prescription sunglasses. Delivery was quicker than I expected and the customer service was top notch. I didn't realise that the price included a solidly made Oakley soft vault case, which was a nice bonus. The glasses are great quality and perfect for mountain biking, which is why I bought them. The transition black iridium lenses are very effective. If you're looking for prescription Oakley's I'd highly recommend popping into a local shop to try the different frames for size - and then place your order with TheInternetOpticians.co.uk! I couldn't find a better price anywhere. Now we just need some sunshine so I can start wearing them..."

"I bought these for eye protection, I had had one too many near misses whilst cycling in the woods. Ordinary specs do not prevent vegetation from making contact with the eye area, the Straight Jacket does. It completely covers the eye area and fits closely to the face, sitting securely on the bone around your eye socket. This prevents anything dangerous poking you in the eye. The clarity of the lens is first class and the transition works as well as expected (I have been wearing transitions lenses for 30 years). The frame iscomfortable and sits well on the face. It does not move despite all the vibration incurred by cycling at speed over bumpy trails. The side arms do not obstruct my cycle helmet and the helmet does not hold the frame in place; that is entirely down to the rubber -ike inserts in the side arms and the nose piece. If you work up a sweat on a cool day and then stop, the lens mist up on the inside, but this disperses quickly if you pull the frame away from the face slightly. The only thing I was disappointed with was how thick the lenses are. I am slightly short sighted and the thickness produces white rings around the periphery of the lens and make my eyes look a bit small. But these are meant to be providing safety for my eyes against impact, so a bit of thickness is to be expected. The Oakleys came in a drawstring bag that are for wiping the lens clean. The bagged specs fit inside a robust zipped case, very nice. If it wasn't for the \"bottom of a jam jar\" effect, I would have given these five stars."
