Has anyone had luck billing prescription biking glasses through their health insurance? How about Oakley?

Go talk to your Oakley dealer, they should be able help you with that. The glasse are very nice as well.

I have looked into a pair of Oakley's Rx. Nice. Expensive but nice. Will give me discount on frame. Price will be close to $300. My other option are RP Keja but tough to find locally.

It depends on your insurance company. I was thinking about getting a Rx for Wiley X's but my insurance will only pay for one pair of glasses per 2 years. I gotta wait another year and hope my Rx doesn't change.

I just got the performance bikes catalog and they ahve several deals on lenses for cycling, the least expensive at $104. I ski with prescription inserts in Bolle goggles, and can get pro deals on them, but I don't think I can beat the deas in the performance catalog. www.performancebike.com
