I too switched to contacts for outdoor activities. No more fogging on cold mornings, or squinting through spray caked glasses. No more spending $$$ for prescription sun and regular glasses. I have astigmatism and have no problems with contacts.

Cal, you might want to consider it before dropping that kind of coin on prescription sunglasses every three or so years as your prescription changes, while still putting up with the hassle of wearing glasses on the water.

Best regards,
Roger

Thanks for all the replies. Although I still don't think I could get used to contacts (just the reflex of putting something in my eye), what does a years worth of contacts typically go for?

I priced some Raybans today. Wraparound, prescription, polarized, comfortable. About $200. Does that sound reasonable? The MJ's are a bit too much.

I think you're talking $360 or so...less any rebates available.

If the optics in the Ray Bans are to your liking I'd say go for it.
