Let us know which Oakley PRIZM Road lens is your favorite in the comments below!

[@tg7950]

Thank you SportRX Andrew! You are a smooth operator and know your stuff!

[@sportrxeyewear]

You are very welcome, Tim! Thanks so much for checking out our video!

[@elbobbo341]

Would you recommend these lenses for Golf also? Looking for the best lens that isn’t polarized. Leaning towards the original road!

[@SebastianFerenczy]

I wish Oakley made Prizm Road glasses in everyday styles, not just funky frames. And also in polarized options.

[@1111italia1111]

excellent i will get one pair for running, mostly trails but lets say 70/30 road, i know there is trail torch but i dunno i think it's too bright for me, i didnt have the chance to try them tho in the shop i went to. so my goal was to get the classic road. the trail torch dont have much the mirror effect vs the road or is it just me? and lastly the jade looks good! (green is my fav color) do u think it's fine to get the road jade for trail ? i will use them a lot during (south of french, french alps) thanks !

[@RobertPaulson87]

For anyone who is recently watching this video and is wondering which pair of prizm road glasses to buy. I have just gone through this journey. I was lucky enough to go to a local store that had all three pairs in stock. I tried them back to back to back. Inside the store and outside in the sun. I ended up deciding to go with the road black pair. There is honestly minimal difference between the road and road black. The road black are still fine to use on an overcast day or earlier in the morning, but will also offer the best sun protection when it's a very bright day. So it's a win win for the road black.

[@erniebecquer7835]

24k vs Road? Are they both Road lenses? I ride mostly my road bike during the day bright sun. What do you recommend, which has better UV protection. Thank you in advance. Semper Fi.

[@lirumlaura]

I have two Oakley Sutros here to compare them, one is prizm road and the other one is prizm road jade. I don't know why but for me it seems the prizm road jade is brighter than the prizm road.. maybe because of the extreme warm tint of the road jade's? Its weird..

[@RN4L]

I have Flaks with Prizm Road black lenses. I wear them just for cycling and they work great. If it’s not sunny I don’t wear them though

[@panklir5240]

Hi Andrew! Thanks for your helpful video! Which lens would you suggest for tennis? I prefer the green colour of jade, but is this the right choice?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! Reach out to our certified opticians and they will personally guide you through the process of which PRIZM lens is best for your specific lighting conditions: www.sportrx.com/contact

[@pushingbroom]

I have standard Prizm Black and Jade lenses in a few of my frames and I also have the Prizm Road lens (OG) ... I imagine the Road Jade and Road Black will be different than the standard Prizm lens mentioned but overall I prefer my Prizm road lens for day to day use, I've even used them for super overcast winter backcountry hikes because I don't have a Prizm snow lens yet.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! Thanks for sharing your feedback with us! You are absolutely right-Prizm Road still works great in a variety of conditions.

I personally have prizm road jade on my Jawbreakers. I’ve been having some trouble with early morning lighting, so I’ve been wearing my jawbone/racing jackets with prizm trail and they help a lot. However, would prizm road or prizm low light maybe be better for like 6:00 am riding?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Eric! You are on the right track! Low Light works really well for rides at dawn but this lens does allow a lot of light through to your eyes so if you want something that would work as the sun is rising higher then we would go with PRIZM Road. Hope this helps!

[@makeanaveragemanrich1284]

Bro! I have jawbreakers also. I have lenses for mountain biking but I'm looking into a new lense for driving and also just outdoor use. I'm looking into the prizm road jade. Would you recommend ?

[@Rc-outdoors]

Hey Andrew @sportrxsandiego i build grain bin silos and the metal is blaring all day on my eyes and these Sutro s are the best I have used for my job what lens would you recommend for more extreme situations?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Olincer! if the glare and reflection is causing severe eyestrain, you'll want to opt for a lens with a low VLT percentage. Both the Prizm Black Polarized & Prizm 24K Polarized offer an 11% VLT rating and should provide enough relief for the conditions you describe. Hope this helps!

[@aroldoamoroso9968]

hi and congratulations for the review, I'm a road runner🏃‍♂️ I would like to buy a pair of radar ev path but I'm undecided on which lens to buy between Road and Jade. Which of the two do you recommend? Obviously my outings are always early in the morning

[@sportrxeyewear]

Greetings! If your runs begin early morning then a lens with a higher VLT (Visible Light Transmission) percentage will benefit you more as it lets more light pass through the lens which helps in low light environments. The Prizm Road will accommodate more of this type of lighting condition with a 20% VLT compared to the 13% of the Jade. 🏃‍♀️

[@HuntShootOffroad]

Thanks huge help!

[@barrettblizzard5352]

Out of curiosity if someone were to use prizm deep water for commuting by bicycle in NY, would there be any drawbacks compared to prizm road black?

[@sportrxeyewear]

That's a good question! No real big drawback, but we don't often push polarized lenses for cycling because there isn't much benefit in your typical cycling conditions to have polarized lenses. The benefit to the Prizm Road Black lenses would be that you are getting a lens designed specifically for the sport and would be the best tailored for you. That is not to say that you need to change your lenses, but we would bet that you have a better experience on the bike with them!

[@reydoriajr]

hi there! kindly help me, what is the difference (size) between and SUTRO S and ASIAN FIT? Thank you.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The Sutro A/F has a larger nosepad than the Sutro. This helps the sunglasses sit off your face more and avoid contact with your cheekbones.

[@kristofban2455]

Great video! But I have a question, would the prizm road lenses be too bright in sunny condition? If I were to use one lens all my life, through summer as well, which would be the best choice? (I do long rides and runs) thanks!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! Oakley just recently introduced PRIZM Road Black and Road Jade. The original PRIZM Road lens was the only road lens option for years which I think demonstrates its ability to get you by in a variety of conditions. However, I would say if you have light-sensitive eyes and find yourself in sunny conditions frequently than going with PRIZM Road Jade would be a good option to check out. Hope this helps!

[@calebgonsalves2970]

I'm looking for a versatile lens something I can start with in the morning and go through until noon or after without issue, would you suggest the Road black or Jade lens? My main concern is it getting 'too dark' in case I run into a shaded portion or get stuck in a slight overcast situation. And is the green tint of the jade just up to taste or does it have any objective benefits?

[@sportrxeyewear]

The Jade lens is actually a grey base tint which may prove too dark for early AM riding/running. The Prizm Road has a bit higher VLT percentage which allows for more light to pass through the lens making it a good option for use in early to late mornings.

[@calebgonsalves2970]

Hi I looking to get the flak 2.0 xl for golf/cycling. I want a dark look of sunglasses but really I want to see as much as possible ie cycling in the woods. What lense is best as I am getting these in prescription. I don't like the orange, blue lens, I just like black, grey dark purple ones. Thanks, its confusing which is best for this purpose? P.S prizm Road is too pink blue bright.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Adam! For golf and cycling, most people opt for a rose base tint like that of the Prizm Road, Prizm Golf/Dark Golf, or Prizm Trail. The Rose enhances color and contrast to help identify changes in the terrain for cycling and reading the contours of the course for golf. However, if you're looking for a lens that looks more grey, consider the Prizm Road Black! It has the appearance of a grey tint but still uses rose as its primary base to give you the best of both worlds!

[@jasonn639]

I find the Regular PRIZM Road's contrast gorgeous in whatever light condition.

[@sportrxeyewear]

I would agree with you there! The original PRIZM Road lens has been around for years and really can work in a variety of conditions. It is great to see some alternate colorways that may be slightly more optimal for those sunny days too.

I’m not sure if these glasses exist or not but I was wondering if there are oakleys that block sun for outfielders, enhance colors, and you can’t see your eyes when someone looks at you.

Hi How would the Prizm road be good for night driving ? thanks.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Ian! The Prizm Road boasts a VLT of 20% and while it does allow more light to pass through the lens then that of a dark gray or brown tint, you ultimately would want a clear lens paired with an anti-reflective coating for any type of night driving. Hope this was helpful!

For DRIVING, do you prefer the Prizm Road series or the Prizm Daily Polarized? This question is for anyone who has used both.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey there, good question! Graham here from SportRx. First off, for driving we recommend PRIZM Polarized lenses before anything else. With that said, the PRIZM Road series (which was created for cyclists) works well for driving as it is fine tuned for being out on the road. The major differences here, are that the PRIZM Polarized everyday lenses will eliminate all glare and have a slightly lower VLT, while the PRIZM road series will sharply reduce glare. As a road cyclist myself, I have worn both PRIZM Road Black, PRIZM Road, and PRIZM Everyday Grey Polarized lenses in the car. Optically, they all work really great. I did notice that in terms of headaches and eye sensitivity, the Polarized option helped a little bit more. I have very sensitive eyes, so for driving I exclusively wear Polarized lenses these days. Hope this helps!

is the prizm road always polarized? possible to get prizm road in neutral gray polarized? thanks.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Juriom! Because the Prizm Road is geared toward cyclists and polarized lenses are generally not recommended for cycling as it can affect one's depth perception especially at high speeds as well as blocking the ability to read bike navigation screens, Oakley does not make a polarized Prizm Road lens. That said, If you're looking for a grey polarized lens, check out their Prizm Grey Polarized!

My prizm road jades are brighter than my prizm roads. Did i get counterfeit or what? They both seem legit. Rosy, the details pop out, but everywhere says jade should be darker. But mine isnt

[@sportrxeyewear]

Greetings! When set side by side looking from behind the lens, the Jade Road does appear brighter. This is due to the amount of vermillion in the dye compared to the original Prizm Road, which delivers a rosier tone that's perceived as darker. The reason for the lower VLT (Visible Light Transmission) with the Jade has to do with the solid mirror, which is more reflective and therefore blocks more light from passing through the lens compared to the Road's mirror, which is a bit more subtle. Compare the reflection from a front-on perspective and you should notice the difference. Hope this helps! ✌️

[@sublimechimp]

@@sportrxeyewear Thanks for the reply! I see what you mean that the Prizm Roads have more rose (vermillion) and appear darker as a result. And the Jades in some sense do appear darker from the front because of the mirror. Absolutely right. I am sure I have authentic Oakleys. But something I’m struggling to understand is how a lens with a lower VLT (jade) can appear brighter (doesn’t that literally mean there’s more visible light coming through?). I think I am conflating two separate factors here, and misunderstanding exactly what VLT means. Please point out my error if you see it. I thought VLT literally meant how bright the world looks while wearing them. Is that wrong?

[@sportrxeyewear]

In some sense that is correct. For example, a grey base tint alone compared to a grey base tint coupled with a solid mirror will appear 'brighter' due to the simple fact that more light is able to pass through the lens. But the type of tint also plays a role in perceived brightness as well. For instance, a dark rose tint and a dark grey tint can theoretically have the same vlt percentage. BUT the rose has the effect of making colors in your environment pop and appear 'brighter', while the grey will keep colors fairly neutral. Personal preference aside, there is also the type of surroundings to consider for each tint option. Rose appeals to snowy, mountain surroundings while grey plays well to dry, desert climates.

[@sportrxeyewear]

That is one option...OR you could potentially settle on a PRIZM Everyday polarized lens like PRIZM Ruby and use it for both. We typically steer people away from polarized lenses for cycling because they cut out glare and sometimes it is necessary to spot those puddles or oil slicks ahead of time but some cyclists don't mind a polarized lens.

[@beyoncehadoneofthebest]

prizm road or prizm road jade to double as cycling and tennis glasses?

I think you get a slight advantage with the Prizm Road. A bit more VLT and rose tint helps to better identify the ball for tennis use.

[@sublimechimp]

The image in this video is actually incorrect. The Road Jades are brighter than the Roads

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi! The mirror+tint combination may appear 'brighter' but the Jade Road's VLT (Visible Light Transmission) stands at 15% compared to the Road's 20%, meaning the Jade blocks more light making it the preferred choice for overtly bright conditions 🚴‍♂️

[@sublimechimp]

@@sportrxeyewear if you hold them next to each other it doesn’t look like the picture in the vid . I don’t care what it says on paper, the jades let more light through

[@sportrxeyewear]

It's true that the dye recipe makes it appear as though the jade is brighter, but if you look at the lenses side by side from a front-on perspective, you'll notice that the jade mirror is more solid and reflective than the subtle mirror of the road, meaning more light is able to pass through the road lens over the Jade, hence the lower VLT percentage.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello Jose! The Positive Red Iridium is quite different from Prizm Road with exception for the mirror.. The Road uses a Rose base tint compared to grey for the Red Iridium. The latter also has a lower VLT of 17% vs. 20% for the Road. Lastly, the Red Iridium does not include Oakley's patented Prizm Technology, so colors will not be as robust with the Red Iridium compared to the Road. Give it a try! SportRx can also replicate a similar lens to that of the Positive Red Iridium. Give us a call to learn more! 877.289.2999
