Anyone here have any (hopefully financially modest) solution to the seemingly eternal problem of having glasses, but wanting sunglasses for those crazy bright days?

Specifically, brands that have maybe a few different lenses they could grind out for you, or maybe a clear set with over filters or something?

Thanks a bunch.

They can be sunglasses or goggles and have interchangeable lenses. They say they support Rx lenses. I don't know how its done or the cost though.

Ironically, though, I have an eye appointment today and was planning to check with the opitcal area about what it takes and how much it costs to get the Rx lenses.
