Happy New Year All;
I just had my vision checked and my perscription adjusted and am shopping for new optics (minor near sightedness only, I don't use perscription glasses for driving or reading, but do appreciate lazor vision for the sport).
I've been using Smiths Ation Optics for years, and am considering using them again but thought I'd ask about your experiences before I pull the trigger.
What I have had were Perscription Photochromatic (where the tint adjusts somewhat to the light level) and they are good but;
- Problem: the moderate tint is way too dark near dusk or even in heavy canyon shadows.
So I'm now thinking that what I need are two pairs;
1) moderate to high tint for high light levels.
2) a very light or near zero tint that I'd switch to late in the day.
Both with high quality polorized lenses of course.
Any thoughts or experience with other brands wolud be appreciated. One of the guides I've know for years uses Hobbi brand.....and thety have great polorized lenses. But I have limited experience with other manufactures.
PS: My wife recently broke one of the lenses on my non-perscription Action Optics Guides Choice glasses and when I asked Smiths if they could replace it, they told me to send it in under warranty (limited lifetime) and they "deny my claim" and offer to relace them for $60. More than fair for $150 glasses. I'll see how that works out....they have been sent in.
Thanks in advance,
MK
