i work in an optical shop/ own one so i know a decent amount about optical stuff if you have more questions.. as far as sunglasses go frogskins are hhhuuuuggggeee right now, the rep said they can barely keep up with the demand. another alt to frog skins are the jupiters i think ?  they're basically a more modern looking version of them. another company to look at is tommy hilfinger, they make some pretty sick sun glasses / perscription frames. some other sunglasses we've been selling a lot of is this designer called Dakota Smith and Republica .. look into those if you want more suggestions let me know or message me

another suggestion if you wanna spend the extra money and get your perscription in the frame is when buying the lenses go for POLYcarb lenses or HIGH DEF lenses ... so much more nice than plastic ( or sometimes called cr39)   ...


i'm a loser. .
