Very informative! Thank you!

[@TakedaKenshi]

In case of an airbag deployment, wouldn't the glass lenses be dangerous due to potentially shattering? Plastic seemingly alleviates this issue. Genuinely curious.

[@hartmutlange3914]

I love my maui jim local kine very much.

[@hardmtnbiker]

I’ve had lenses get damaged from being left in the car. This is definitely something to be aware of also the frames getting damaged from the heat.

[@ssaini5028]

I leave my glasses in the compartment above me, no issues in the heat. However leaving them out in the open on the seat, on your dash unprotected is a bad idea.

[@MrVashsword]

i never had a problem with sunglasses in the car other than the frames being to hot to put on my face. now leaving my proscription glasses in the car is a different story

[@youtube123miki]

Thanks guys !!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thank you too!

[@70SuperCobraJet]

Great video! I have a pair of Oakley Turbine Grey Ink with Ruby, does the etching at the bottom PrizmP, mean it’s Prizm & polarized also? I love all the other videos y’all put out very informative! Thanks

[@MrVashsword]

may be a dumb question but is there a reason why some are mirrored on the inside? because sometimes if the sun is hitting me from a side angle the reflection of seeing my eyes can be a distraction

[@nenadnedovic9246]

For me serengeti sedonas do the trick in brera large frame. Great rose color photochromatic. Love a rose lens.

[@ssaini5028]

Sedona is an amazing tint.

[@ssterkmans]

Probably, the best lenses out there. 😎😉

[@didamnesia3575]

Rose photochromic? Hoooooly sheeeeet

[@nenadnedovic9246]

@didamnesia3575 Yes they are.Very good on the eye

[@frankt7769]

I've been wearing serengeti 555nm sunglasses for 7 years they are the best

[@ctrguy9502]

#sportrx stoked 2 find ur page man!😎 I was a lead lab tech at LensCrafters (Luxottica) back in the day & worked with most major brands & materials. 🕶️ I was there in the final years when we used 1950’s tech & made lenses by hand from blocks of material-to finished lenses, inspected with microscopes!.. at a time when lense & coating tech was rapidly evolving! Last 2 years of my tenure was starting their 1st store to began using CNC tech (which they were cautiously optimistically about) so I learned a bit about glasses. Most review channels are 🐂💩 who just read descriptions off websites & sound like child-unboxing-toy-vids!! 🤙♥️

[@Ara198826]

I just bought the costa rincon but on the lable it says not suitable for driving , any idea why and should I return them ?

[@msn-hn9eb]

Would gradient help you see better as you enter parking garages or checking emails and texts on your phone in an outside parking lot?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Great question! Theoretically yes because you'll have less tint intensity near the bottom of the lens which is the portion you'll likely look through to view said screens or a phone.

[@Reddylion]

nice video.... will save it...

[@sportrxeyewear]

Please do! 🙌

[@Reddylion]

@@sportrxeyewear 👍

[@sylvesterzhang1197]

What is the frame that you were wearing? Looks great.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Sylvester that is the Oakley Scavenger! Unfortunately we no longer carry that model but you can see what Oakley's we do have here: bit.ly/3vzvq3H. Also just note that we will include the information of Tyler's frames in the KZbin description as well. Thanks for tuning in!

[@beefnoodlesoup135]

I have transitions Drivewear lenses on my sunglasses and I think they're great.

[@Diadactyl]

I've just bought some. Any major drawbacks? Waiting for them to arrive.

[@grrmonkey]

Neeeerd

[@ThomasBeineke]

I don’t like your comment to the effect that the “scientific test” showed that the yellow lenses don’t help at night. The scientific test evaluated the wrong issue. The principal reason to wear yellow is to minimize the glare of the newer led headlights, which really should be banned because of blinding oncoming drivers. Mine really help me deal with the led headlights at least until they are made illegal.

[@1stAmendmentfukyoutube]

They won’t be made illegal and why you wearing sunglasses at night

[@ThomasBeineke]

LED technology is Great, but there is no reason to increase the light intensity the way they have done. In addition the headlights often are not properly aimed. They blind on-coming drivers. The motor vehicle authorities really need to set some limits. Until they wake up to this, the glasses do a good job of reducing the glare.

[@JohnnyTaxonomy]

Tyler! What glasses are you wearing in the cut scene shown at the beginning of this video (at ~1:26)? The black frames.

[@sportrxeyewear]

What up Johnny!? They are the Maui Jim MJO2215 👉www.sportrx.com/maui-jim-mjo2215.html

[@JohnnyTaxonomy]

@@sportrxeyewear Thanks!!

[@JohnnyTaxonomy]

@@sportrxeyewear Wow! These are outrageously expensive. 👎💰😬

[@reygacutan3018]

Tyler what glasses are you wearing is that Oakley? what model can do prescription as well?

[@aggielaw8005]

Hi, I’ve got a rayban chromance blue color mirror lens, just wondering is that suitable for driving? Thanks

[@sportrxeyewear]

Yes, absolutely. It ultimately comes down to personal preference but the chromance blue should assist with contrast and clarity especially in bright environments.

[@jbarres80]

I’m looking for 2 clear lens 1 for shooting and 2 for casual wear want them to fit in either costa spearo xl and rinco

[@sportrxeyewear]

We can help with that! Give our opticians a call or shoot us an email with your Rx info and an optician will get back to you asap to get an order started. You can also order online in the links below...🔥 👉www.sportrx.com/costa-rincon.html 👉www.sportrx.com/costa-spearo-xl.html

[@GameplaysNekoBravoCl]

Hi, any prizm that you recommend for driving, sunny/cloudy days

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there, yes! The Prizm Sapphire Polarized, Tunsten Polarized, and Black Polarized work great for bright sunny conditions. A non-polarized tint with a higher VLT percentage helps with overcast/cloudy conditions. Check out the Prizm Dark Golf, Road, or Trail Torch. A good in-between option is the Prizm Road Jade or Rose Gold. Check 'em out!

[@GameplaysNekoBravoCl]

@@sportrxeyewear Thanks

[@Ozzarus]

The glasses your wearing what are they

[@sportrxeyewear]

Oakley Scavenger!

[@diraclanddahabland8873]

4:30 and not fetting me stay
