I want to get clip-on sunglasses for my glasses. It's a surprisingly difficult thing to shop for.

Posted by Mop🧹 (aka rburriel) Jul 17 '24, 11:18

Most that I'm finding are a set, glasses and clip-on, where I assume you then get a prescription for the glasses. Am I searching for the wrong thing? And should I just be poking around a Dollar Tree? This doesn't feel like it should be expensive.

Seriously? I would suggest prescription sunglasses rather than some clip on thing. -- nm - Krusty Jul 17, 12:57
A. If you want sun glasses then you want to protect your eyes from UV ,don't think you get that from dollar store plastic -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 17, 11:39

I love my transition lenses. And I used to be one with several sets of sunglasses. -- nm - LFG Jul 17, 11:34 4
- The only clip ons I might consider are the new glasses that have the exact same frame that seems to have magnets? -- nm* - LFG Jul 17, 11:36 3
  - I want the magnetic ones. -- nm - ☀️ mandy chem ☀️ Jul 17, 11:49 2
    - I had those, loved it but the clip on part is softer plastic and scuffs easier, freaking expensive to replace -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 17, 13:16
    - They are the first I might consider in the future. I would hate having something I have to... store, again. That is why I like transitions. -- nm - LFG Jul 17, 11:51
Get contacts. Then you can just wear sunglasses! -- nm - JaxSean Jul 17, 11:34
OK, but I'm going to start calling you Dmop Mop. -- nm - Baron of the Rings Jul 17, 11:29

39 dollar glasses will put lenses in frames you buy, if you get a set like that. -- nm - colin Jul 17, 11:23
I wear the sunglasses that go over regular glasses and get them at The Dollar Store. Clip-ons are tricky as would depend on the type of glasses they - Beaker 🍺 Jul 17, 11:21 2
- we keep those kind in the car, so that they're there if we need them. -- nm - Andie Jul 17, 11:25 1
  - I think I have 6 pair? car, van, Lake, home, work, spare -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jul 17, 11:27
really? -- (link*) - oblique Jul 17, 11:21 [Image] 3
- as evidenced, those clip-ons are specific for those glasses, would be tricky to just find ones that fit in the wild I would think... -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jul 17, 11:22 2
  - Quick google comes up with these. Seem generic enough but yeah, still would think they'd be nitpicky to fit depending on the glasses -- (link) - oblique Jul 17, 11:26
  - A-yup. But I'm kinda loving this set. -- (link) - Mop🧹 Jul 17, 11:23
