perscription eyewear?
 
Anyone have any suggestions for perscription eyewear for cycling. The every day glasses I wear tend to slip and the wind is all over. I'd like something a little more stable and with better coverage. As a note I also have a pretty strong perscription.

Ekynox are only $80 here: http://gearguys.com/50001.html
Add in the adapter and the perscription and I believe you'll end up at below $200.

I don't have any personal experience, but I recall a similar thread on one of the bulletin borads within the past month or two.

In that thread, a couple of different posters indicated the ones that use a separate lense holder put the prescription lenses too close to your face so that they tend to fog up. As a result, I decided to go with a pair of prescription sun glasses. My eyeglass guy retro fitted a pair of bows that curve behind my ears. There is no way these are going to slide down my nose or fall off.

I have the Performance brand with prescription inserts. They are comfortable and work great. They're not as cool looking as the others but they're also not as much money.
